Great house on a beautiful property!
The place was perfect for a weekend getaway with friends — the house had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms that housed our group of 8 very comfortably. There was so much to do just on the property (canoeing on the lake, starting the fire pit, playing games, watching a move) that we barely left the house. Highly recommend!

Lovely lake house
Great location. Stayed previously and enjoyed the updated kitchen. House very comfortable for all ages. Safe new dock. Even caught a few fish off of it. Would definitely stay again. Everything is as advertised!

Second stay as good as the first!
For the second year in a row my family vacationed with some friends and had an absolute blast! (6 of us in total) Great house and spot on the lake! Plenty of room for us, swimming and kayaking is excellent. Even on rainy days the hangout room downstairs provides a lot of fun. Planning to go back next year!

Lovely house - and quiet as promised
We've rented a lake house every summer for the past 12 years, and this was one of the nicest we've had. The house is on one of the narrow inlets on Sleepy Hollow Lake lake, and the only motorized traffic was from pontoon boats, which are no-wake and almost silent. Even though other houses are quite close on either side, the trees provide great privacy (and lots of bird song), and you're not really aware of the neighbors. Swimming was excellent - no algae growth or weeds on the lake even after an unusually hot July. We enjoyed the deck and the dock area, especially the fire pit in the evening. As other reviews have mentioned, the kitchen is a little small, but very functional, and all the basic supplies you need. Communication with the owners was very good, with quick responses to our questions. Would definitely consider renting again.
