This is our second year staying here! We love the location. It’s clean, has enough room for the whole family, and the outdoor patio and decks are fantastic. We will diligently book again next year! Plus she left a yummy jar pickled jalapeño’s.

This home has such an amazing view of the lake. Everything you could possibly need is there for you. We didn't have time to enjoy the kayak's but there are a few for you to use. There are so many beds and enough bathrooms for a large party of people. I would definitely stay here again.

What an amazing property!!! Perfect location, breathtaking views and a host that went above and beyond with ideas for surrounding activities. Huge property with allllll the room you could need. The balcony’s were to die for. I gave 4stars on cleanliness due to a musty basement room. This room was clean and tidy but was located in the basement with a window that has their irrigation system above it so water drips down and I’m assuming that would be the reason for the smell. Please do not get me wrong, it wasn’t overwhelming or unusable, it just had a slight musty smell. With all the rooms, you could avoid it and not even know. The kayaks are ready and available for use and the fire pit is a must see! The basement is like its own property/apartment with a kitchen, patio, bathroom, living area and ping pong table. There are beautiful and well maintained plants throughout the house with cascading foliage around every corner. The beds were wonderful and I am a mattress snob so the fact that I’m adding this is huge. I very rarely find a rental with comfortable beds. If ever in the area, I highly recommend staying here for peace, comfort and all the space needed both inside and out.Thank you for making our trip so enjoyable Leslie

Great family time at Spirit of Curlew Lake

We had a great time at Sharlene’s place. The private bay was a big hit! It was a short hike down a little trail which opened up to a quiet bay. We swam and fished there every day. Sharlene provided an aluminum boat and we brought a large inflatable boat. The deep fire pit was also a big plus, with s’mores all around. We played outdoor games in the volleyball area. The kids also played on the swing set on the property. Sharlene always answered my texts immediately and was very helpful. We would definitely recommend this for a family gathering. We had 6 adults, 4 kids and a dog.

Good Stay

The house was pretty clean. The only thing I would say was negative about the cleanliness is that it had a very musty moisture smell to it that hit you every time you walked in the house after being out and about. The house was very comfortable for my family of 4 as 2-3 other family members couldn’t make it last minute. Ultimately, I would stay again if I had 6-8 people coming along.

Wonderful vacation at Curlew Lake

Sharlene's property has a beautiful view of Curlew Lake. It is very spacious and accommodated our large group with areas for kids, teens, and adults. I was impressed by the many extras provided: spices, condiments, a large variety of cooking pans and serving dishes, games for inside and out, plenty of paper towels and toilet paper. We had a wonderful time with our family and will return to this house if possible in the future.

Great location, interesting house

The location of the house and views were great. The house had lots of plants which left seeds all over the couches and floor which we had to constantly brush off. Another reason why we wouldn’t give this 5 stars is the internet was very slow. My husband tried to do some work remotely and could not use zoom. The communication was great but the cleanliness of the house and lack of internet made it not ideal.

My family and I rented this house for new years weekend. Great communication with the property owner, and was allowed to check in a few hours early! The view of the lake is beautiful!

So Accomodating!

We were unable to make our trip due to a change in family plans last minute, however our experiene leading up to the stay is worth the review! We were able to drive by & check it out a few weeks prior. The premises are wonderful! Circle deiveway, outdoor activities, INCREDIBLE view of the Lake, everything needed to accomodate for a large family gathering (which we will be returning for in Spring)! The owner had the driveway plowed & home ready for our arrival. So understanding with our situation & was prompt to respond to all of my questions. We can't wait till next year where we can share our experience of actually staying!!

This was the most amazing house, property, and view! It was better than we could have hoped for!

We stayed here as a staff retreat with spouses for 3 nights. The owner was fantastic to communicate with. The property and house were more beautiful than the pictures can explain. The area was incredibly quiet and also amazing! All in all, every aspect of our stay was better than we could have hoped for! I would highly recommend this VRBO to anyone considering staying and I will be using it again!
