Beautiful property. True to description. Plenty of linens, utensils, plates, pantry items, games, puzzles, lake "toys", and available via text or messenger. We have been taking this family girls' trip for 9 years and this was by far the best rental!

EVERYTHING went very smoothly. I’ve never booked our family vacations (I’m 70 years old!!) I was concerned about it being a gated community (nope, never had to deal with that either). The hosts were very patient and thoughtful about all my questions and concerns. The house suited us perfectly and everything was there that was needed and even wanted. There were 4 young teenage boys and they were never bored. The kitchen had every appliance we needed. Only had trouble finding the vegetable peeler. This was an exceptional vacation for all 11 of our family.

Relax and/or Play all day!

Our family loved staying at your beautiful home on the lake. Sitting on the upper deck with coffee, and the morning light on the lake was a wonderful way to start the day. After breakfast the kids and most of the adults spent the days playing in the water, paddle boarding, peddle boating and fishing. The home was stocked with anything we needed or wanted, and couldn't have been more welcoming. Ellen was super nice and responded quickly to any questions we had. We would love to go again.

I could not ask for more!

The entire experience was just right on! The property is nicely remodeled and everything worked great. 11 of us had plenty of space to stretch out. The dock area being deep in the cove was great for the kids! Interaction with our host was quick and very satisfying, They even provided towels for outside. Also, lots of shade which I really appreciate these days.

Family Summer Vacation June 2024

Lovely, peaceful, large lakefront property with mature trees on a cove with lots of water toys. Most popular were the paddle boards which none of us had done before. Enjoyed paddling the grands around the cove and to the nearby beach. Appreciated the many life jackets provided. Had fun fishing off the dock, making smores in the firepit, peddle boating around the cove, feeding the turtles, swans, ducks and fish, waking up with morning tea on the deck, watching the sun set at the dock, swimming at the club pool and beach, walking around the neighborhood, cooking steaks on the grill, having Fathers Day dinner at the club and having sushi at Tokyo restaurant. Hosts were attentive and very easy to work with. Thanks to the hot tub maintenance man for the fish! Very professional and pleasant to talk with! We had perfect weather, a wonderfully fun week and will cherish the memories.

Great Getaway

Our group of 16 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. It was one of the cleanest rentals I’ve ever been in (and I’ve stayed in many rental properties over the years!), and it was very-well equipped, both in terms of toiletries and towels, etc., and many other items that were just thoughtful—such as sunscreen, goggles and even flip-flops to borrow. There were a few toys that were perfect for the kids in our party, and the rafts, paddle boards and peddle boat were thoroughly enjoyed by all. There is also a little public access beach a short swim or paddle board ride away that was great fun for the littlest members of our group. It was also a super easy drive from the DC/NoVA area. I can definitely see us going back again.

New Years Family Fun

What a great home for families! We stayed here with another family. It was clean, organized, and very comfortable. Our hosts, Ellen and Steve, were courteous, kind in communication, and their attractive home was well organized with plenty of kitchen ware, clean towels, life vests (for our polar plunge), sheets, sound machines, etc. It is clear they take great pride in their home and want others to enjoy it as much as they do. We highly recommend this location- a beautiful view of the lake in the morning for coffee. We traveled here for a wedding and if we head back here from CT, we would definitely stay here again.

Thanksgiving at Lake of the Woods

Fourteen members of our family traveled from NJ, PA, and NC to the Richard’s Lake of the Woods home to celebrate Thanksgiving. The Richard’s property did not disappoint…we had an incredible time! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you’d need to make a feast for a large group. There were plenty of activities in the house to keep the little ones and the big ones busy. (Cornhole, board games, basketball game, and water toys) Oh and let’s not forget the hot tub! The two televisions allowed for the cooks to watch the Thanksgiving parade while cooking and the others to watch the World Cup downstairs! Win! Win! The surrounding community offered opportunities for trips to the playground for the younger members of the group and a few rounds of pickle ball and golf for the adults. The views from the large deck and sun room of the lake and fail foliage were absolutely breathtaking! Communication was seamless between myself and our hosts. The Richard family went above and beyond to be accommodating hosts. We would absolutely welcome the opportunity to return to this property and highly recommend it!
