Great Lake House

Came to celebrate a 50th bday with family and had a great time. We have a boat at Port Royale, and it was a 20 min boat ride and dock was in great shape to house my boat for a few days. Great views, good property, fair price for accommodations, and would gladly stay again.

Excellent location and view

A bit of a walk to the water, however that is to be expected at the Lake. Suggest you bring your own ATV as there is a gravel path to the dock. House was perfect for us and the owner was flexible with our dates. Highly recommend.

Wonderful family time

The house is spacious, furniture in living room is not very comfortable. There are several sitting areas which is nice to be able to do puzzles or games. Beds were very comfortable and kitchen is well stocked. The path to the lake is very steep, tough for older people as it is slippery with sand, pebbles and leaves. It would be nice if the garage door opened so we could bring in groceries through the garage instead of down the path and up through the living room. The dock is large with a few chairs- the only shade is on the lower portion- we never used the top as it was too hot. Overall we had a great time- a pleasant stay.

Lakefront Bliss

My husband and I and our 4 adult children and their partners stayed in this gorgeous house with double decker boat dock. The owner was delightful and the house a dream with plenty of room for all! We had other family join us for the day for a small family reunion and had a blast on the lake, lazing on tubes and rafts and a boat ride. We would definitely book this place again!

Heaven is definitely closer when you are in a house by the lake

Beautiful place for a memorable family reunion. Afternoon sunsets from the deck, watch the deer stroll by in the morning, or have an afternoon cocktail by the dock. What a great experience! This place is so comfortable and spacious. The kids (and even the pets) also loved it. Simply awesome.

Our family so enjoyed the space to gather, whether on the lake, watching the deer in the back yard, to playing corn hole in the front yard, to plenty of space inside the home to reconnect. Thanks again.
