Renters are welcome to bring their own boat, as rental includes use of one side of the 30' dock. There is parking for 5 cars on Barber Pole Road above the house. There is no parking directly by the lake.
Richard's lake house was absolutely amazing! Very secluded and quiet, you'll feel like you have a small portion of the lake to yourselves. The house is in great shape and has all the amenities needed, we were comfortable there with a baby and multiple family members. I'd recommend to anyone looking for a stay on Winnipesauke, we will book again!
House was wonderful as were the owners. Great area for the little ones to swim as well as adults. Well stocked and clean...everything we needed was in the kitchen and plenty of room to spread out for our family. Loved every minute!
We had the best time! The home was set up well for our group of three generations. The media room was a great space for entertaining, especially when it was raining. We did lose power several times, but the host was quick to share with us where the flashlights and such were. The wading pool area of the lake was perfect for my 5 year old and for the 60 and 70 year olds in our group to get in and out of the lake. We would absolutely stay here again!
We had a very comfortable and relaxing week at Loonrise. The house is beautiful, spacious and has everything you need. We enjoyed kayaking and swimming from the dock. Richard was the perfect host.
We always enjoy our stay at Loonrise - great house, great location, great hosts! Everything is as advertised, the house is spacious, well stocked, clean, and comfortable even for large families or groups. The lake is gorgeous. Highly recommend sleeping in the cabin by the dock so you can hear the loons in the wee hours.
We chose Loonrise for our first family vacation for the location and cabin size. Everything was clean and spacious as advertised. The owners were kind and made sure we had what we needed to enjoy our stay!
Outstanding experience. We had car trouble on the way there. Richard and his wife were wonderful. We ended up sending the kids up to the house while we dealt with finding a rental car to be able to continue the trip. Richard and his wife checked on the kids and made sure they were good before we were able to make it there on Sunday afternoon. The house and property were amazing and secluded, yet close to a beautiful town. Overall a great and relaxing vacation, even with the car troubles.
We had three generations staying at Loonrise for a week, 8 family members total. Richard was very timely with his response to any questions we had, and everything was exactly as advertised. We brought our 21’ boat with us, and made excellent use of the dock all week. The house is very spacious and comfortable! This was an excellent trip at a perfect getaway location with excellent hosts. We would definitely stay again!
Very spacious, clean property with plenty of parking. Loonrise was the perfect home for our family vacation. Location in a protected cove was ideal. The property is also convenient to many hikes with views of the lakes. We took advantage of the dock and rented a pontoon boat. Friendly hosts who provided us with everything that we needed for a relaxing stay.
We had plenty of room for our family in this spacious and comfortable house. It is a great location on a quiet cove for kids and adults to swim, kayak, boat and fish. Also, some great spotting of wildlife in the woods surrounding the property. The kids also especially enjoyed finding treasures in the games/toy closet when the weather wasn't cooperative.
