What a beautiful home! Very comfortable and well appointed. Mattress was very comfy. Views are second to none. Very good communication with the Host as well. Would definitely recommend and will be staying here again in the future. The outside windows do need to be cleaned, but I would imagine it's hard to keep them clean 100% of the time, so not that big of a deal.

The layout of the house is impressive! There is so much space in each room and the bedrooms are strategically spread out. The view is beautiful and you feel secluded. There are so many options on how to spend your time. The s’more supplies and firewood were a nice touch. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

Owner is great. Not same opinion of The Evolve team

I ended up not getting to go at all due to winter storm and there was no way me or any of my guest can make it. The owner of the property was very willing to work with me and help me out and even suggested that I called the vacation rental company to see if they can help unfortunately vacation rental place would not work with me, but like I said, the owner was very friendly and it helped me rebook.

The Absolute Best!

If you are coming to Lay Lake, or Shelby County at all this is by far the best place to stay. The lot is absolutely perfect on a peninsula on the main river channel with the best views from all sides, the house is breathtaking, and the representatives are super awesome and easy to deal with. I’d give 10 stars if I could. We will be booking again for our tournament next year I assure you if you get the chance you will not regret!
