Family reunion

Came to town to visit family. The location was perfect and Casey and Jeff’s home was exactly what we need to relax after a long day of family events.

Great place, this is a "don't judge a book by the cover" location. The place was immaculate inside and decorated very nicely. Everything was clean and they even have a little book of things to do. We checked out the Zoo which is not far and had a nice day. The lake is beautiful and did a chartered tour on the river begin to see the Purple Martin's roost at Bomb Island. The host answered questions quickly and even took care of a problem with the A/C before we arrived (storm to out power and messed it up), but we had it back on our stay. Would definitely stay here again, just be careful as driveway is very steep and can scrape under carriage if not very careful going in and out on a lower vehicle.

Very nice home near the water

Loved the stay as it was 5 minutes from the wedding venue. Only complaint is the driveway is extremely steep. Loved it otherwise

Great location and great views!!

Very clean and well equipped. Comfortable furniture, great views of the lake and close to restaurants (south shore grocery and grill is new, 5 min anway, and so good!). We loved morning coffee on the balcony in very comfortable chairs. Ideal location to visit family in nearby Harbour Watch when they already have a house full! We will be back!

Super clean. Responsive host. Minutes from the lake and super close to a good restaurant and outdoor store… only issue for us was boat parking but we just parked across the street. Highly recommend the stay!

6/10 Okay

Disliked: Cleanliness
Pet-friendly. However it is obvious that a large dog has been upstairs; rug and furniture are in desperate need of cleaning/replacement. Otherwise the place was comfortable and suited our needs. Bed and bathroom were fine downstairs. The steep driveway is an issue so we parked across the street sometimes.
