Always enjoy this house!

We have stayed in this house four or five times and always love our time there. My husband and I have stayed there by ourselves as well as with friends. The property is always immaculate. We love the three porches, a glass enclosed, screen enclosed, an open one. Lots of room for relaxing and watching deer. You might take your folding chairs for the dock, which is another nice place to sit. We highly recommend this house!

Winter Getaway

Had a fantastic stay at Holly Lake ranch! We loved watching the birds and deer in the front yard! We played golf or pickle ball almost every day. The cabin was very clean and fully stocked as the listing states. The beds were comfortable - very peaceful and quiet.Thank you for sharing your cabin with us!

Peaceful quiet country getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful country home. It was perfect for the four of us. We especially enjoyed getting up and having our morning coffee in the sunroom and watching the deer run by. We will definitely be staying here again on our next trip to the country.

We loved our vacation and stay at this cabin- my grandkids were attending Camp Deer Run and the location and ease to get to the camp was great- the cabin was perfect and the dock area on the lake was just perfect. We hope to go again some day!

MEMORIAL WEEKEND GETAWAY

We had some issues with the TV and it did finally get resolved with the owner. The inside of the house was fine, you could tell no one had stayed there in a while, some things needed attention. The outside needs some TLC, path down to lake is very unstable, outside needs some cleaning up. We did have fun with staying in Holy Lake, we have some friends there. We will be back to Holy Lake for sure. Thanks

Peaceful and Relaxing

This is a lovely house in a very relaxing location. The dock is a short walk down from the house and we did a lot of fishing and canoeing. Having the pool and playground in the community was a great added benefit for the young children.

Perfect Getaway

We stayed here in March during Spring Break. The drive here was gorgeous with all the wisteria in bloom. We always try to choose a waterfront VRBO, and this one did not disappoint! The home was very comfortable and relaxing. We spent lots of time on the dock and caught endless numbers of bluegill using just tiny pieces of hotdog. There was a huge bass living under the dock that also tried to catch our bluegill! We also enjoyed the other amenities of this community, such as the waterfall hiking trail, mini golf, and pickle ball. Would definitely come back!

About the host

Hosted by Joe and Carolyn Fields

Host profile image
We started off as college sweethearts and now have enjoyed 45 years of marriage. With 3 grown children, and 3 precious grandchildren, our home has always been the hub for folks to gather for food, fun and fellowship. We love offering a place for family and friends to gather, connect, and build great memories.

Why they chose this property

This cabin is owned by our friends, Mike & Cindy Shimasaki, who visited and fell in love with this area as well. They recently purchased the home and we have the pleasure of managing it as a vacation rental until they retire and move in it full time.

What makes this property unique

This home is located on Holly Lake which does not allow motors over 10hp. So the lake is always calm and peaceful for canoeing, kayaking, fishing, and relaxation on the water. This home has both a lake view and a view of the woods.
