Gateway in sunny, warm Cranbrook
Great location, Definitely great for a family gathering - Rustic, charming lake cabin, nice bedrooms/bathrooms setup but VRBO description/listing is a bit outdated Not all amenities are still available Living room furnitures needs upgrade, upkeep on the infrastructure have been neglected but considering that the place is up for sale, the owner for this rental property may not want to put any money in

Filthy House. Feel Scammed
Jerry is unfortunately the worst host I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. His House was very DIRTY. The sheets in all 5 bedroom were filthy with hair/crumbs/dirt. We had to clean all counter /table surfaces and floor before we unpacked. The host/owner lives out of country and was not communicating with us in any helpful way. He threatened me to not leave a review and then he would refund us 50%. The refund never happened. It’s a shame. the lake is pretty. I feel scammed. And the filthy property inside and out ruined our weekend

Family getaway
This was our second summer at the lake house. The location of the property is ideal. Being right on the lake is perfect for kids. The property could use a little tlc, but for the price and location it’s a great value. Would come back again.

Roomy cabin with privacy and nice access to the water
We had a family gathering and 12 of us slept comfortably! The cabin is rustic and spacious with a nice deck and a path to a private dock! We really enjoyed our time!
