Love The 8 Lakes Life!

Location of the home was great! Right on the water, and we rented a boat to explore the lake and chain of lakes. Communication with owner was great and very timely response. There is only 3 bathrooms (one downstairs and two upstairs, one upstairs is an en-suite and other upstairs bathroom is very very small). There are definitely numerous cosmetic updates that can/should be done within the house (living room has a big big soft spot that is covered by a rug), fridge missing some shelves, toilet lose. Some updates are needed. The location is great, lawn, outdoor space and dock were great.

Plenty of bedrooms. Beautiful lake with kayaks provided. Spacious living area. Very attentive owners who solved our minor problem immediately. It was an excellent weekend.

Family gathering of 9. Very pleasurable, comfortable stay. We all enjoyed the place and the surroundings tremendously. Cabinetry could use updating although it was all functional. Host (Dominic) was very prompt and helpful with the very few things we needed to contact him about (e.g resupplying charcoal and lighter fluid, etc).

My family of 16 stayed here for a week and really enjoyed it! The property had great amenities with yard games, kayaks and SUP boards. The bedrooms were all spacious. The office had a pull out couch that was very comfortable and convenient as a bedroom. The hosts were very responsive and super helpful with any questions. They left a binder with a ton of local information on restaurants, grocery stores and things to do. We had a great week!

The property was not what we expected or hoped for considering the price. Most of the bedrooms barely had a place to put clothes away. It seemed dilapidated and cheaply furnished, and many things were broken and barely patched including the only dining table, cabinets in the kitchen, fireplace, etc. One of the bathrooms was so small it barely fit an adult and the sink was 6 inches wide and 12 inches long… no exaggeration. Even for the four of us who stayed there the bathroom situation was pretty bleak… it would have been awful for 14 people as the house supposedly sleeps. The last night the venting system in our bedroom was so loud I actually had to move into a different room, and the neighbors certainly were not following the quiet hours restrictions. Finally we never received check in instructions from our host until we sent a message at 10:30pm the first night of our stay. Definitely underwhelming for the price.

The house fit our family perfectly. My two sisters and I, and our families stayed there comfortably (12 adults and two infants).There was plenty of sitting and game playing area and the kitchen was well equipped. The setting was gorgeous, sunrises and sunsets were spectacular.

The house was dilapidated and dirty! A kitchen cupboard was falling off its hinges, and there was here on the tile of the bathtub wall, another bathroom lacked a toilet paper roll holder, there weren’t enough dishes and silverware for a house that has room for 16 people. The refrigerators were dirty. The dock on the lake was so covered with bird poop, it was unusable. The wells of the paddleboat overflowed with water and debris who is no way to get rid of it. I have photos that document the state of disrepair. There were not full sets of towels… Only a bath towel for each guest. Numerous lights on the main floor and in bedrooms didn’t work. The “ premium hosts” he dismissed my complaints and concerns as “frivolous.” The host also said that they had personally inspected the property before our arrival, which makes this experience all the more shocking. They were unwilling to discount the stay and the only offer they made was for a gift certificate to a local tavern, which is hardly acceptable nor is it useful when infants are part of the family reunion. I would strongly urge visitors visitors to the chain of lakes look elsewhere because this property was wholly unacceptable: dirty, rundown, in disrepair. I wish this review offered me the option to attach photos to document my experience.

Had an awesome time and experience here. Dominic was very accommodating and the house was perfect location on the lake. The lake was beautiful -- we used the kayaks, paddleboards, and mini paddle boat every day (all were provided by the owner). Would absolutely stay here again, the backyard and view of the beautiful lake made everything worth it!

We had an amazing stay in this cottage. Our group of 10 had plenty of space within all the bedrooms, and the common areas accommodated us all very well. The kitchen was well-stocked and well-used by our group. It was great to have all the outdoor games and water equipment, as well as a fair amount of provided board games. The only thing lacking was some better light in the living space... a floor lamp or two would have been great. This is a great place!

All 11 of us enjoyed the week! A lovely lake, a nice house and good weather!! Can’t beat that!!
