Seniors Reunion
We brought my elderly parents out to see siblings. The property was a great overall venue for the visit, just right for being away from the city yet close to take a few trips into town to see relatives and pick up some groceries.

Best Ever!
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Ambers lake house. We didn’t want to go back home.
So many wonderful memories we have made here. S’mores by the fire. Hot tub relaxing, paddle boarding, and the list goes on. Absolutely loved all the room in the house and the beds were super comfortable. You can tell Amber and her husband have put in a lot of work into their lake house. We hope to be back next year!

Relaxing Getaway
Such a beautiful view!
It was the perfect spot for our quiet family getaway. The place itself is cozy, had everything we needed (and more bonuses we loved), with many different areas of the house to sit and relax and enjoy the view.
This is also a great home base to explore the surrounding area, which the host provides a great guide of activities and places to check out.
The host was so good at communicating with any questions we had and accommodating our requests.
We will definitely be back, except this time we will book a longer stay!
