    The host was very prompt in answering any questions I had. The cabin was clean, and the beds were comfortable. There have been some nice updates in the kitchen and bathrooms. If I had anything negative to say, it would be the pots and pans. They are older and have the Teflon coating with lots of scratches. Thankfully, there was 1 stainless steel deep frying pan, so I made that work. That said, it wouldn't keep me from going back; I'd just bring one of my own pans.

    The place was clean and suited our needs. We stayed in the winter and I do want to note that a 4-wheel drive would be beneficial in the snow.

    The cabin was very clean and nicely decorated. The view of Spider Lake was very nice. The kitchen has all kinds of utensils. The beds were comfortable.

    Clean, nicely furnished. Hot water pressure was very low. Very quiet, lovely visit for our family. Was disappointed they did not have the rowboat listed in their ad. They did have pontoon boats for rent, but too expensive for the couple of hours we wanted to fish with the grandson.

    Home was clean and perfect space for our summer family vacation. The kids enjoyed the sandy beach and shallow water. Great experience renting a pontoon for a day as well. We would definitely stay again!

    My family and I had a wonderful trip. The lake house was great, exactly as described. The house was fully stocked w everything you would need for a weeks stay. I was very impressed with how clean the house was. Contact with the owner and property manager was easy. The location of the house is close enough to town for shopping and activities but far enough away for a relaxing vacation. I would definitely go back, I highly recommend the house.

    The set up of the community is nice. The swim area is really nice. Lots of seating outdoors. Not much privacy as the living room has a doorwall (1st floor bedroom also) that opens to the courtyard area and 3 or 4 other cabins walk through that area to their parking.

    Nice little group of cabins on a beautiful lake. It was older with the typical funky uneven floors and quirky stuff, but it was nice enough and had lots of good updates in the kitchen and baths. Nice place for the price. We went on a gorgeous winter weekend and enjoyed the snow and local festivities but it would probably be even more fun in the summer on the lake. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
