Beautiful view!!!

This place was spacious and gorgeous! We loved the big island in the kitchen and everything was very clean and fresh, and cozy. The loft was neat and the couch was great to fit all 7 of us! The deck on the house was perfect for coffee in the mornings. The boat dock was great and the kids enjoyed fishing and the swimming with the lily pad. Amazing stay!

Family get away

We had a great time, enjoying the luxury of the home as well as sunshine and fishing of the lake. Covered dock was wonderful to park our boat and to sit and relax. Several farmers markets and antique shops with close distance. Enjoyed hiking at Fern Cliff State Park as well. Property owners were very accommodating and addressed minor concerns immediately.

Amazing property!

Reality was even better than the photos of this property! It was sparkling clean, and the view was spectacular! We loved the gorgeous deck and big kitchen, as well as the comfy couch and beds. The dock was also fabulous. We rented a boat, and the owners worked with us to have the boat delivered. Communication before and during the stay was prompt and any and all questions and concerns were addressed within minutes. We love Lake of Egypt and try to come every summer. This will be our new home away from home while we’re there!

Boat dock had a large deck in great shape-perfect for access to swimming in the lake. Pack a cooler before heading down to the dock, as it is a steep walk down to the lake, even with the steps and a paved path to get there. View out back windows was awesome!! You could see the lake while you were cooking or dining or lounging in the comfy couch. Beautiful sunsets.Every evening we enjoyed sitting on the large deck next to the fire pit. Extra propane tanks were provided. We emptied a tank for the fire pit and were able to rapidly return to enjoyment without having to call and wait for someone to deliver more propane. Bathrooms and bedrooms were very nice and beds were comfortable. Communication with host was great and they stopped in when we arrived to see if we had any questions.
