Can’t say enough about how wonderful this home is. Bigger than I expected. Very clean and large open rooms. Lakeside with gorgeous views. Unfortunately it rained while we were there but the home was so comfortable we enjoyed our time with friends. Definitely more than enough space for our group of 8. Also plenty of parking spaces. I would absolutely stay here again!

Eric’s place was great! We had everything we needed for our week long stay! The house was also VERY clean. This may sound silly, but I’ve stayed in many vacation homes, and you can always tell how clean a place is by the small details, like coffee maker, drawers, etc…I was so pleased to find that the coffee pot and filter had been run through the dishwasher before we arrived! the kitchen was spotless and well stocked. It’s the small things, that really make a difference in your comfort level! Eric was also very accommodating and responsive to a special request we had! This is a great house, and we would definitely stay again!

We booked this home after changing our trip dates and losing the original house we rented. Boy, was it worth it!! The home is Beautiful! The views, natural light, huge master bathroom, and the most comfortable couch were just some of our favorite things. One of the bedrooms had kids' books and toys, and it was perfect for our 4-year-old daughter. The owners' communication with us was at its best! We look forward to returning next year!

Waterfront Star Lake w/ kayaks & motorized dock

4.96 out of 5 average rating, 25 reviews6 months ago

I was here for a fall visit so could not take full advantage of the wonderful lake location but would love to come back in the summer to fully enjoy this location. We did have the chance to go on an afternoon kayak which was great fun and absolutely beautiful with the fall foliage! The kitchen is very well stocked with pots and pans and utensils as well as a few spices. We cooked a lot and I brought all ingredients and condiments I needed and I would recommend you do the same. Shop before hand as there is not a grocery store nearby. The location is right across the street from a Circle K but the house is nestled far back from the road with a garage out front so the gas station and all it's buzz were not at all noticeable. The living room was arranged awkwardly and with some tired furniture and the TV is actually in the dining room. If you were a large group trying to watch a movie or gather in the living room this would be a bit challenging. The beds were extremely comfortable!
