We had a wonderful stay. The house was very nice, spacious and clean. The view of the lake was absolutely beautiful and the water was so clear. The beach area was perfect for the grandchildren to swim and play. We could have used more refrigerator space due to our 5 year old granddaughter having diabetes and celiac disease so we did all the cooking at the lake house. Everyone would like to return next year for another vacation.

Family trip on the lake

This was our second trip to this house on Rose Lake. The house is well stocked, very comfortable, and just as described. We love the crib for our littlest and the space to spread out for the rest of us. The swimming off the dock and sandy bottom made for excellent memories! Looking forward to coming back again soon.

Spacious, clean house on a great lake

House is spacious and clean, with large kitchen, nice lower level patio and a very nice upper deck with beautiful views. We really enjoyed the lake. Rented a pontoon boat and cruised around lake a bunch of times and anchored at the sand bar for afternoon relaxation on the lake. Shallow but clean lake, with a considerable amount of nature preserve as shoreline. Great stay!
