Good experience
Great lake experience which was our main focus. House was large enough and as stated. Not as clean as I would have appreciated but the kitchen was clean and had all we needed to cook for our 4 day stay. Nice grill too.

This property worked perfectly for our group (four couples). Five bedrooms and large gathering spaces were very nice. Only complaint was the weedy lake made swimming uncomfortable.

Amazing!
The property was everything advertised and more. The owner was phenomenal. We have booked thru VRBO before and this property met our expectations and beyond. The Lake is a hidden gem in the Alexander area and very clean with not much boat traffic. Our family caught a bunch of panfish as fast as you can reel them in. We also caught an abundance of Pike. All fish we caught and released. We could of eaten fish all week! We will definitely be back again!

Wedding
We booked this for 3 days for our daughters wedding weekend. It was very clean and spacious. The porch had great lighting to do hair and makeup. It was nice for the bride to relax by the lake in the morning with bridesmaids. The day after the wedding was so windy we were unable to utilize the water toys but did enjoy a dip in the lake and the peaceful setting to relax. Would love to come back and use the lake another time. Erik was great with responding anytime I had a question prior to our stay. Great host!!

Reunion
This was a great location for our friend reunion. We loved the added option to rent the pontoon. The bedrooms were decent sizes and it was great to have a basement with a TV that was separate from the rest of the bedrooms.

Excellent lake home with tons of fun things to do
My family of 13 thoroughly enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards, adults and teenagers! A little bit of a walk down the steps to the lake but a good workout. The view from the screened in porch was excellent. Very updated kitchen and bathrooms. Only a mile or two out of town. Will stay again when back up in the area.

Family Trip
The cabin was nicely updated, clean and had everything we needed for our week up there. It had plenty of space for our family and the bedrooms were plenty big. The kids loved swimming in the lake and using the paddle boards. It is in a very convenient location close to stores and restaurants as well.

Family Vacation
This house was perfect for our family vacation! Our group included two teenagers who enjoyed using the paddleboards and kayaks. Looking out from inside the house, felt like being in a tree house. The lakeside patio was a great place to relax. We also rented the pontoon for the week which provided endless hours of boat rides and fishing. The house was stocked with everything that you could possibly need.

10/10 would recommend!
This cabin is absolutely beautiful! We had 8 adults in our group and there was still plenty of room! The location is amazing and pretty easy to find! The lake wasn't crowded at all so it was easy to float and fish off the dock. The guys in our group loved the paddle boards as well. Erik made the check in/check out process a breeze. He was very responsive and easy to communicate with!

Amazing rental
This was the best VRBO that we have rented over the years. The house itself is a perfect layout for a varied crew. We had 4 adults, a teenager, and 2 kids under 7. The layout gave everyone their own space and at the same time no one was isolated. The whole reason for renting a house in the first place is to have the comforts of home. Too many rentals fall short in this category but not this place-- it had everything you need and more. Kitchen beautifully stocked, plenty of bedding, and lots of gear to enjoy the lake (kayaks, paddle boards, inner tubes). There is a pontoon available for rent (extra charge for that, very reasonable) but we weren't able to take advantage of it this time. The beds were very comfortable, the A/C worked beautifully, it was easy to find things, the place was CLEAN, the owner was very quick and efficient at communicating. We would rent again in a heartbeat!

Fabulous location and amenities
The location on the lake and proximity to town were perfect, the furnishings comfortable and lovely, the home was well appointed with every amenity included. We loved our time enjoying a lakeside bonfire, bird and wildlife watching and exploring the area. The hosts were helpful, communicative and ensured a perfect stay.

Great time had by all.
The house was roomy and nice for us ten women. Beautiful view, quiet neighborhood. Well stocked! The only concern was with the driveway. It was icy. There was salt for us to use, but would have been better for it to have been put on before we got there, Eric was great to work with. I hope to come back with my family in the summer.

We stayed here with our five small children and had a phenomenal time! Erik is a wonderful, accommodating, responsive host and was so kind to work with our schedule due to a snow storm.

Great place for a large family
Check in process was simple, and had great communication with the owner. We have a large family with several kids. The five bedrooms made this simple. The house was clean and had everything we could need. The stairs leading to the dock were tricky and might be a problem for small kids. We had ok results fishing. We caught lots of crappie and bass, but most were really small. We only caught one walleye all week. Overall we had a great experience with this property, and we'll consider staying here again next year.
