Beautiful home on the inside with amazing view!

Absolutely love the house on the inside and such an amazing kitchen. Very clean on the inside. The only negative would be outside. The deck needs improvement as well as the steps leading down to the water. The dock is absolutely perfect! Easy check-in and easy checkout.

Excellent for living the lake life!

This house was perfect for our family get-away with friends. It was exactly as described, check in was easy & Laura was very quick to respond to all messages - before & during our stay. This house was probably the cleanest rental I've ever stayed in. Plenty of towels, soap, toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dishwasher tablets, etc. The location on the lake (in a little cove) gave us calm waters and a natural limit for the kids to kayak. Like any house, there's a few quirky features but nothing that detracts from the quality.

Had an issue this year with the right boat slip where it previously had a lift. On the right side it had a piece of metal that did significant damage to the boat, scratching and gouging the side. High water at the beginning of the week did not help and probably contributed to the problem.Strongly suggest removing the metal from the side of the dock and block off immediately.

Family Thanksgiving

The house was very clean. Linens were in great shape! Towels were amazing. We loved the basket of blankets/throws. The small pool table was a huge hit! Everyone played at some point of our visit. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes, cookware, etc. We wished the weather had been warmer so we could have used the outdoor space. Lake view was beautiful & relaxing. We would rent again if we are meeting in Southern Illinois. Our group came from NW Indiana, Chicago and Atlanta.

Had a great stay

We’ve stayed at a variety of houses along Lake of Egypt over the years and this was easily one of our favorite stays. The house was the perfect size for our family of 5. Nicely remodeled and very clean. Will definitely stay again. Only complaint is they need to upgrade the grill. They did such a nice job with the house, but clearly skimmed on the cheap charcoal grill, which was filthy.

Family Gathering

Welcoming Host, clean home right on Lake Egypt on a peaceful cove. Would stay again for sure and had 2 Kayaks with paddles available but remember to bring your own life jackets. Suggest for new kayakers maybe rent wider kayak for more stable experience. Dock has 2 covered jet skis that are not part of rental and suggest having one of those dock spaces open to launch kayaks. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you need. Had plenty of choices of chairs for outside seating and waited until last day to eat breakfast on deck and wished had tried that earlier as relaxing space shaded with a tree most of the day.

Our family was impressed with the indoor accommodations. We felt it to be very clean and probably the best equipped kitchen of any rental we have ever stayed. Feeding all of us was never and issue we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again. A suggested improvement would be the stairs/path to get the dock are in need of an update, Overall a great stay, thank you.
