Escape Busy Life to Lakeshore Luxury !!! FREE tritoon rental with 7+ Day booking

Would absolutely return annually! Perfect beach for families with little ones that enjoy shallow water activities. Garage/game room great for older kids and adults to spend time. Lakeview deck (awning available) was my favorite spot.

4 generations of our family with 9 adults & 6 under 6 had a great time! Easy check in (even offered early), room for 15 and top notch amenities made everything flow smoothly. Did not rent the boat, but enjoyed kayaking the nearby tributary, paddle boarding, relaxing on floats, lounging on the deck or playing games on the shore. Water level and sand area was perfect for the little ones! Enjoyed downtown Lake Odessa and local eats Penny's Pizza, Buddy's and Meyers Bakery along with utilizing the grill and fully stocked kitchen daily. The city playground is close by and super fun! Loved this property and would highly recommend it!

The home was beautiful and comfortable. We had a large group of multigenerational family and friends. There are four bedrooms and the fifth is the garage which has been converted into a large space for additional sleeping quarters (and dining). We rented the pontoon boat for the entire stay, which worked out really well. There is a restaurant on the lake that you can get to via boat or vehicle, which is a nice option. There is also a grocery store in town with everything you need, including a lifejacket for our smallest one, firewood, etc. There is also a washer and dryer which is handy. One challenge we had was with the pre-arrival communication. The host had an error in my email address, so I did not receive important documents she had sent ahead of time. As a result, I ended up having to complete everything the morning I was leaving, which was stressful and time-consuming. To her credit, she acknowledged the mistake once it was caught.Also, the VRBO platform makes communication between the host and guest difficult, which added to the challenge. This is something to be aware of if you’re booking. This was my first time booking on the site so I was not aware of the aforementioned variables. Now that I know, I would confirm communication early on in the process. Overall, it’s a lovely lake property and I would recommend you book!

Overall a great stay and Shelly and Jimmy were very helpful and responsive. Appreciated the streamlined and neatly organized kitchen! The house was very clean and extra parking was appreciated. We didn’t realize that this was not quite a sandy beach to the water. The garage had fun games but not ideal space for sleeping or dining (the only dining table). We were able to eat all our meals outside near the water, which was nice, but we were all spaced apart.

Enjoyed 5 nights away for the holiday weekend. The cottage was very clean with plenty of room. We used the pontoon, kayaks, hot tub, etc. communication was great! Would definitely recommend.

We stayed 6 days in the home and had 12 people with us. The home was large enough to accommodate us all. Separate bedrooms for 4 separate families. With a group this large, we had 4 vehicles. Parking is tight (2 in the garage, 2 in the driveway - very tight). The view of the lake is pretty amazing the deck has great furniture for relaxing. There is a small sandy beach which we took advantage of by setting up our Cornhole boards which family could watch from the deck or from the adirondack chairs near the Solo Stove Fire Pit. The home was clean with modern amenities. We put the kitchen to use with a group of 12. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything you'd need to cook. The non-stick pans were perfect for made-to-order omlettes. The home is close to perfect, but there are some things to know about with the location. The house is at the east end of the lake which means seaweed and other debris will get pushed to the beach. There is a blower on the dock that will push most of it away, but it's worth noting. The home is also right off a busy street and near rail road tracks. Not super loud, but again worth noting. The big question would be, would we rent there again? We sure would. It's a great home on a beautiful lake. Lots of family memories can be made there.

The property is perfect for a family vacation. The home is very clean, well stocked and gave us all time to relax and enjoy our time together. We really enjoyed the beach and the boat and had a great time fishing. We loved our time here and would definitely book here again!

Great Lake house! Perfect for a get together on a lake! Lots of beds, lots of outdoor chairs and nice patio, dock, and beach. We rented the pontoon boat, which made the vacation so amazing to be able to cruise the lake, fish, and relax. Shelly is very responsive and answered all our questions!

We had a great time at the lake house! The updated modern feel and cleanliness of the place was amazing. We shared the space with long time best friends and their families and had a great stay. The pontoon boat is fabulous (once we figured out how to start it LOL). All the kids enjoyed crashing in front of the giant TV in the evening and playing games in the sun-drenched eating area. The master bedroom upstairs was gorgeous with a walkout balcony overlooking the lake. We used the enclosed space on the adjoining lot as a work space for those who needed to do some work away from home. We cooked all of our meals in the kitchen as it was well stocked; and enjoyed sunsets sitting outside laughing and sharing memories.

Lovely home in a fun and pretty lake! Great hospitality
