A World Away

Even though we live only an hour away from the “home on the lake,” our five days there felt a world away. Because we know all the major attractions, we spent our time exploring the little towns in the area, fishing and relaxing with a book or just enjoying the water and the sun. Gail and Dave are excellent VRBO hosts, there when you need something but otherwise very skilled at protecting your privacy. The evening excursion on Ohop Lake aboard their pontoon boat provided good company and interesting information about the lake and its formation.The house was perfect for us. It was clean, nicely appointed and had everything we needed, even an additional stand-alone ice maker! The various heating and cooling options kept us comfortable day and night. Although we chose not to participate, lots of water “toys” were readily available. Sitting on the deck or dock were favorite pastimes as we observed the ducks, geese, eagles, kingfishers and various other birds, watched the mist rising off the lake in the early morning or just enjoyed the clear, clean air at the lake. We are thrilled to have found this little spot and have put it on our list of favorite places in the area.

Perfect lake cabin getaway

This sweet little lake cabin is a gem! The water is steps from the front door, and there are plenty of fun water toys to keep you active. The house is very clean and comfortable, with gorgeous views and a cozy little front deck. I voted the doc at this property the nicest on the lake! The hosts are amazing and we couldn't have asked for a better weekend!

Great friends getaway

The lake house was just what my friends and I needed to recharge and relax. The variety of water apparatus to use were very easy to access. Accommodations were clean and very well appointed. Being very close to town made it easy to get anything we needed and the restaurants were great. Will definitely come back.

Delightful and tranquil resort from the city

My 2 friends and I really enjoyed staying here for the week. You really are right on the water of this tranquil lake. A very peaceful break from the hecticness of the city. Just a short drive into Eatonville, a friendly town with everything you need. The manager was very helpful but left us to our privacy. The house isn't huge but has everything you need. The beds were comfortable enough. I would definitely return for another getaway when I have the chance!

Fantastic getaway

We had a fabulous girls’ getaway at Lake Ohop. The cabin was spotlessly clean, well stocked and comfortable. The view is fantastic. Gail and Dave are excellent hosts—the boat tour around the lake was a nice touch. We look forward to returning to enjoy more “life at the lake”. A great place to relax and spend time together!

Paradise!

Everything was perfect right down to sharing their cat, as we missed our two. I can’t wait to stay here again. Hopefully this will be our summer vacation home next year as time allows. I never knew this little gem of a lake existed. Everything in the house is new, clean and in pristine condition. Gail and David are fabulous hosts!!!
