Great location, wonderful stay!
Perfect long weekend at the lake for a family of 5 and our dog! We enjoyed lots of lake time, relaxing on the deck and playing ping pong! The house was nicely stocked with basics - toilet paper, paper towel and trash bags - which was really nice. The kitchen had everything we needed and they also had a grill. Will definitely be back!

Great cabin and lake view
Julie was very helpful and accomodating. The cabin was perfect for a weekend getaway. Was nice to have the kayaks and other toys/floats available for use. Would definitely recommend for anyone thinking of staying!

Quiet lake view
The house has a nice view of the lake, and is on a small bay on the far end from the landing. That really reduces lake traffic, making our stay peaceful.

Spacious Deck with Beautiful View of Lake
This was a vacation with my 2 adult sons and their wives. The property had a game room with several fun things to do, a large lawn for playing yard games, a large deck for sitting and chatting, a large table for playing games in the evening, and a nice dock to swim off. We also rented a pontoon so got to see the beautiful lake. The owner was a great communicator and supplied everything we needed.

Great place, everything as listed
our family is very familiar with Hackensack but have never stayed here before. The listing is spot on. We had a wonderful time, weather was perfect and Julie made everything so easy. She has EVERYTHING you could ever need in a cabin. House is stocked with every appliance and she has all kinds of things to do. Games for indoor, a garage with pool table ping pong basketball etc and kayaks and canoes for outdoor use!! She answered any questions promptly and was very accommodating.. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a great lake home. Thanks Julie for a great time.
