This was our 2nd year staying in this beautiful home. Overall, an excellent vacation for our family. Communication with the host was excellent, the beds are comfortable. 2 minor concerns, new batteries were needed for a smoke alarm and were unavailable, and the kitchen knives need to be sharpened.

Great house!

6 of us retired ladies stayed for 2 nights to explore the area. It was a wonderful house for us all to stay. Lots of room for us to spread out if we wanted to, and plenty of space for us to do a puzzle and play cards at night. It was close to everything that we wanted to see. Easy to get to. The views out the front windows of the lake were fabulous!

Cool, quirky, large clean house, in a great location. Bring water shoes if you want to go in the lake. House needs a little TLC which the owner indicated they would address. My friends and family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The front porch is a great spot to hangout and was very popular with our group.

We stayed here Labor Day weekend with a group of 12 people. The location is great and the house has lots of room inside and outside. The owner is working to update the house and it is evident throughout the house. They were very responsive to questions and we would definitely stay here again.

We had a great stay in this lakeside treasure!

Our family reunion in Auburn was amazing in this big beautiful house with a spacious yard and easy lake access. Everything was just as promised and the landlord couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly. Nine adults and three kids had plenty of room to enjoy our family meals and activities. The kitchen is very large and meal prep was a lot of fun. There was plenty of bedroom space and a few bonus rooms for people to sit and enjoy a bit of relaxing time away from the bustle.

Five of my women friends and I stayed at this beautiful home for a long weekend. It was the perfect spot for us to relax, catch up with each other and have a great time. The front porch overlooking the lake was the perfect place to spend a good amount of our time. The house is large and beautiful. We had everything we needed.
