    This lakehouse getaway was an absolute delight! The home was spotlessly clean, charmingly quaint, and offered excellent accommodations that made our stay comfortable and memorable. The neighbors were incredibly friendly, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. David, the host, went above and beyond with communication, ensuring every detail was covered. Highly recommend this gem for a relaxing retreat!

    This is our 3rd time renting with Dave and hopefully will not be our last. We absolutely LOVE the location, the front porch which affords a wonderful view of the lake and spectacular sunsets. It's nice to find a rental that is not too big and one we can afford. We are very comfortable while there and feel like we're coming Home. Over the years, we've become very comfortable with Dave, feeling like he's more of a friend. Feel free to leave this out of the review . . . If we could change one thing, it would be the mandatory potential damage fees. After 3 rentals, he knows we are trustworthy, don't drink or smoke and will naturally not damage anything. That would help financially. I suppose it could be a VRBO requirement, but there should be instances where it could be waived.

    Loved our stay! The house was nicely furnished, clean, and very well equipped with everything we needed to be comfortable. My husband and grandkids had great luck fishing from the dock. The swimming area was shallow and safe for the kids. The lake (and view from the porch) was beautiful! David was easy to reach and very accommodating.

    We spent a week at this cozy cabin and it felt like going home to mom's. Very clean, well supplied in all ways, close to local activities, great porch for rain or shine, and beautiful sunsets! Kitchen is supplied with everything you need, including sharp knives! The cabin is not large but there is plenty of space for everything we brought for our own convenience. There are new stainless kitchen appliances and a new washer and dryer. We only used the master bedroom and can say it slept mighty good. David was awesome to work with and promptly answered our questions. Upon leaving, he asked for input to improve the place. Only thing I could come up with is that more washcloths would be helpful, the water is very soft so a bathmat and handicap bar would be safer and the loft stairs may be a bit challenging for for old folks like us. The place is just plain great! We hit the sights in Middlebury and Shipsee but also the Rise N Roll Bakery and dinner with friends at Jay Walkers, at David's suggestion. (Menu is in the basket} Recommend it all! Steaks and peppered bacon from Yoder's Meat and Cheese were great hits, too!

    The best part of our stay was the Amish community & seeing their horse ridden carriages everywhere! The rental was quaint. And yes, there is a street that you have to cross to get to your part of the lake which mind you had some a tad aggressive driver's coming through. I was also kind of disappointed that when I specified my son who has Down Syndrome was scheduled to have surgery a day before our scheduled leave which ,unfortunately required us to cut our stay one day short I did not even get an email saying sorry about our situation, not even offered a credit toward another stay for a future stay or even half off for that one day. I get it was a week before our stay that our situation changed beyond our control but, having empathy as opposed to always being about profit speaks volumes..it left a bad impression. David did say we could utilize the paddle boat/kayaks that he does normally charge for free since we were leaving a day earlier. Yes we used paddle boat but the control & rudder were out of sync & impossible to maneuver! We just turned back! I also wish I was informed prior to our stay the policies of what a renter is required to do before we head out. When we were texted in the morning at 10:45 am asking when we would be heading out I told David that we were heading out the door in 2 min, only then did he tell us we were to strip every bed/pillow we used during our stay & put all plugs back in sockets! His reasoning was O I wasn't sure when we were heading out! Um you knew we had to cut our vacay one day short so a text the day before would have made sense but, we never got one!! Communication was lacking! Overall, the rental was clean & the view of lake was eye pleasing no doubt. I did keep my cool despite these frustrations! Please buy or bring all your spices and cooking oil if you plan to cook!!

    This is an amazing place to relax and enjoy the weather. We had such a great time swimming and fishing. My grandchildren had so much fun that they did not want to leave. David was a wonderful host and made sure our vacation was perfect.
