Welcome to our Bonding Time LLC lake house! You’re in for a treat when you realize what sets this house and it’s owners apart from other vacation rentals! We have the advantage of living on the same lake, so we are able to provide prompt and exceptional customer service. You’ll have a five star experience and want to return! Our quality furnishings and tasteful decor will make you feel right at home.

Dogs possible at owners discretion and $125 fee. No pets otherthan dogs. Do not Instant Book if you have a dog, please send an inquiry first so we can discuss. There are additional rules that apply for dogs.

This home has walk-out to a level lot that then gently slopes to a natural beach shoreline (when the water level is down), and there is a small area of beach by the shore. The yard has beautiful mature trees, a fire pit, dock, and pontoon (minimal per stay charge). The home is located on a very quiet dead-end road, and only 5 minutes to the grocery store / downtown area.

Irogami Lake is a clean, shallow (maximum depth is about 8 feet), safe, low traffic lake. It is a full recreation lake perfect for skiing, tubing, wake boarding, fishing, etc.
Rest assured, your boat will work great on this lake despite the shallow depth and your skiers will be happy to not fight traffic.

Even though ski hours are 6am to 8:30pm (10am-8:30pm weekends and holidays), the lake is quiet enough that you can use our paddle boards, kayaks, canoe, paddle boat, row boat, fish, or swim, etc without issue.

The home is perfect for your large group; sleeping 17 people in beds, 2 people on a sleeper sofa, and 1 child or small adult on a roll out bed. We also have a queen sized air mattress that two children could sleep on in the living room or game room. Four out of six bedrooms have queen/king non-bunk beds, so you will have plenty of comfortable sleeping room. There is a Master bedroom en suite, a main level shared bathroom with tub shower, and a lower level full bathroom with walk-in shower.

The open concept brand new kitchen allows for everyone to join together at meals. The island in the kitchen has seating and there’s a BIG table in the dining area to fit your group for mealtime (please protect this table while using it! Do not slide dishes across the wood. There are a number of table cloths you can use. Also, do NOT put anything hot on the wood without a trivet or hot pad). There is also a folding table with 4 chairs, and a folding poker table that when covered with table cloths can be used for meals.

The great family area in the lower level is a activity/game hub for your group. We have a bar area, pool table, darts, air hockey, foosball, board games, children's books, 65 TV and more in this area! Rainy days will not disappoint! For the sunny days, enjoy out door seating with large upper deck, and walk-out ground level patio overlooking a wonderful yard on the lake side for gathering together.

Lake toys: paddle boat, canoe, row boat/sailboat, 10' kayak, and two paddle boards included. We keep a number of life vests in the garage. Sizes and quantity listed later in this description. Return life vests and lake toys in a neat and orderly manner!

No-smoking inside or cigarette butts left outside, or security deposit is kept.

No indoor cooking of food with lingering pungent smells that cannot be removed before the next guests check in. We provide a Weber grill that can cook those smelly foods outdoors. The grill is new. You may use it only if you clean the grates, flame covers, and drip pan before you leave. It should look new. If not, a portion or all of your security deposit will be kept. Gas included, but if you run through the tank because you left the gas on you will need to refill the tank at your expense.

We recommend you look into cancellation protection in case something unexpected comes up and at the last minute you cannot make you trip and you are within the No Refund timeframe:
http://www.vacationprotection.com/ tab=Cancellation-Protection

There is a $99 insurance protection plan that will be added once you start your booking process. This will give both parties extra protection, and will cover up to $5,000 of accident coverage. If ANY damage occurs during your stay take a picture and send to the owners immediately so they can submit it to the insurance. This insures that security deposit would only be held for disrespect to property and not following rules.

    We had a great time for our annual ice fishing trip Diane and Dave's lake house! They were very attentive hosts, the house was well stocked, and the location was perfect for our group. For future fishing groups, we definitely recommend Silver lake (about a 6 minute drive) for northern, bass, and perch. Thank you so much Diane and Dave! We hope to visit again soon!

    A 5-star review for our stay at the bonding time beach cabin in Wautoma! My husband and I hosted our kids/spouses and 6 grandkids for our annual Christmas weekend at this location, and it was perfect. Everyone had a comfy bedroom, and we had plenty of space for everyone in the kitchen/main living/dining area; we loved the big family table!! The cabin was exactly as described and in very nice and clean condition; and we all loved the game room basement! We would highly recommend as a great spot for a friends and/or family gathering!

    House was located on a small lake that was perfect for swimming, kayaking, paddle board. Loved all of the water toys, boats available on the property. We brought our own wood for the fire but there was some there to use. The deck has a wonderful view of the lake and lots of chairs-we spent most of our time outdoors due to beautiful weather.It was nice to have 2 separate living rooms . Game room was fun for the kids however, the ball return was not working for pool table and foosball. A little maintenance on air hockey, pool table and foosball would make the game room perfect.Kitchen was large with huge dining table so we could all eat together. Gentle suggestion for host-please provide one empty cabinet for food storage. Large refrigerator/freezer was nice with beverage fridge in garage.Unit has 2 large washers and dryers so it was not difficult to have towels washed and dried as requested.Would definitely stay there again.

    We had a great stay and would certainly stay again. Three things that would have made our stay better: a larger ,flatter yard for yard games, a larger living room for 15 of us, a lot of emphasis on things we must do and the things we can't do. The rules were mostly reasonable, but it seemed a little too unfriendly. All these turned out to 6be minor things. The lake was great, all6 bedrooms were nice, the kitchen was big enough, game room was excellent. Owners were friendly and attentive. Clean and organized. The Bonds were efficient. We are definitely glad we stayed.

    We absolutely loved our stay at this property for our extended family of 15. Diane was great to work with and responded to our every question and need. The house was extremely clean and well stocked. The lake access was wonderful. We really appreciated the use of the kayaks, paddle boards, paddle boat, and canoe. There were a lot of nice life jackets also as well as other floating toys. Fishing was fantastic! The kids were constantly catching bass and panfish. A few keepers but mainly fun to just catch and release. We loved being able to rent the pontoon as well. The house had plenty of sleeping space for 8 adults and 7 kids/teenagers. The pool table, foosball, and air hockey were also a huge hit. The 2nd refrigerator in the garage was great for our drinks. We also loved the large dining table so everyone could eat together and it was great for playing games as well. It was also nice to have the two patio tables on the deck. Great to use for morning coffee and visiting. We would definitely stay here again.

    The house is beautiful with a great view of the water! Pictures on the posting made it look bigger than it actually was, so our group of 18 adults was a little crowded feeling! If you are considering booking, be sure it will accommodate your group size first! There were some definite parts of the house that could use a little TLC and updating (air hockey table didnt work, basement door didnt seem to lock all the way, basement couch appeared to be in rough shape, and some of the beds in the basement and lofted bed upstairs were uncomfortable to sleep on. Overall though, we were very happy with the host's communication, general cleanliness of the place, and location on the lake!place,eipregrbefcomforbooking!

It was quiet and remote enough to be a nice relaxing change of pace from the city life, but also close enough to town to get all the groceries you need and close to a very nice ski resort! The hosts had impeccable communication and check in and check out was a breeze. Would definitely consider staying here again!

    We enjoyed everything about this beautiful home and property! We had 12 family members together to celebrate an 80th birthday and the home was open and spacious and had lots of gathering spaces for all 12 of us to come together to eat, talk and reminisce. Not only is the home beautiful, the setting is as well with a lovely view of the lake and we were pleased with the lake toys available for us to use, i.e. kayaks, pedal boat, etc. The only thing I would mention is that the listing says the home can accommodate 20 and I would caution that it seems like a number that is too high....especially if all the guests are adults. We had 12 adults and that seemed like a maximum for uncrowded movement in the living areas and especially for sleeping. We ended up putting 2 6-ft tall family members in the bunkbeds and they struggled a bit :) However, for kids that would work just fine. Again, for us, we loved every minute of our stay and would highly recommend staying in this beautiful space for a family gathering.

    Excellent host. Quick responses to messages. The neighborhood had a sewer issue (not the owners fault) and we had 12 ladies who couldn’t use any water on our last night at the house. The owner immediately found us a new place to stay and even met us at the new house at 10pm to make sure we found it. The house is beautiful and clean. My family has already been talking about going back next year for our annual girls weekend. Fantastic and would give more than 5 stars if we could.

The kitchen was the best-equipped of any place I have ever rented and the HUGE dining table provided seats for everyone but the weather was so beautiful, we actually had most of our meals outside on the deck.
