Great house, excellent hosts
We had a great stay over Spring Break. The house was great for five kids (5-9) and four adults. The kids really enjoyed Legoland which was a quick and convenient distance away. The adults loves the lakeside fire pit and the hot tub. The house was incredibly clean and very well stocked. It was great not to worry about bringing too many household items or rushing around with a difficult checkout, the house was so well stocked we didn’t need to bring much and checkout was incredibly easy. Communication with the hosts was very easy, they returned all messages very quickly and even let us check in early!

Wish we could live here
I definitely want to come back. This place was beautiful in the fall and I imagine it will be even more amazing in the winter. The house was homey and cozy, with lots of nice places to hang out with the family and lots of space for the kids to play in. Sitting in the hot tub while it was almost zero degrees, enjoying the view of the lake was so relaxing. Home was very clean and communications with the owner were so quick and easy. This was also perfect for day trips to Legoland and Woodbury. All in all this made for a perfect weekend and the only downside was that our stay had to end! We shall return!

Beautiful Property, Great Location
We had a wonderful stay at this large lakefront property. The outdoor living space like the back deck and swimming pool were great bonuses, with beautiful views of the lake. The location is also very well situated to enjoy lots of activities in the area. We took our kids to LegoLand (15 min drive) and Storm King (25 min drive) during our stay. This is one of the best stocked house rentals I've stayed at as well: there were shower products, coffee pods, condiments, plenty of towels, anything you could need was on hand. Appreciated the comfortable mattresses too!

Weekend getaway
We had a wonderful time at this house. We made use of the pool table, fireplace, cooked great meals together, put together puzzles and had a relaxing time. The house is well maintained, we appreciated the very organized house guide the host emailed to us. One note that we weren’t aware of until arrival, the water here is softened. We picked up jugs of drinking water as we didn’t care for the taste but that’s a personal preference. Next time we’ll know to bring water. Overall we had a wonderful stay and would definitely come back!

Perfect Legoland Rental
Our family and friends thoroughly enjoyed our week in this lakeside home. Just 15 minutes from Legoland made this the ideal location for us. The pool, lake and what our kids dubbed “the kid cave” (basement) made this the perfect house to keep everyone entertained for the week. The owners were very responsive and the house was one of the most well stocked we have ever stayed at. Just an fyi for those like us coming from more rural locations this is more of a suburb vibe and there is road noise from across the lake. Didn’t impact our stay but not completely tranquil.

Family Celebration Weekend
My husband, 2 daughters/spouses, 4 granddaughters 8-15 yrs. and dog, spent the long weekend celebrating my birthday. We had a wonderful time doing everything the beautiful lake/pool house afforded us. Whether we were in the pool, canoeing, kayaking, sitting around the fire pit or having billiard and ping pong games, we were busy every minute. Ilya and Dyer could not have been more accommodating from start to finish and the house was as described but even better. All of us also enjoyed the surprise ‘birthday basket’ they had delivered to me! The 10 of us were so happy we chose this well situated, spacious property and highly recommend it. It exceeded our expectations. We only wish we could have stayed longer!

The property was clean and very spacious, as there were a lot of us. The extra bedding and air beds really came in handy. The property is in a very nice and quiet neighborhood and sits right on the lake. The activities (lake, canoe, game room, etc) was exactly what we needed to relax and have fun after our game. I would recommend this property to anyone and am looking forward to our next stay!!

Peaceful location with easy access to Mt. Peter
We were two families with kids needing a good home base for a ski weekend at Mt. Peter. Our children range in ages from 7-9 and loved the house and the grounds. They went sledding in the yard and there was plenty to do downstairs with darts and games, and a nice fireplace to warm up next to and watch a movie. The house was fully stocked - linens and extra blankets for the bedrooms, two air mattresses which we used given the kids all wanted to stay together, a beautiful master suite and extra toiletries in the bathrooms and plenty of kitchen supplies. We were very happy with our choice and the check-in/out process was seamless. Ilya was a welcoming host and we will visit again!

Lovely family holiday
This was a perfect property for our family to gather and celebrate Thanksgiving. Besides having enough bedrooms, the kitchen was functional and well outfitted for cooking and there was a dining room for a more formal meal. We had plenty of room to watch TV, or visit by the fireplace, or work on a puzzle, or play games in the basement. Since it was cold and a little wet (muddy), we didn't spend much time outside, but the lake is beautiful. I would love to come back in the summer months to enjoy the water and the outdoors! The town was close for shopping, and we found a few nice hikes in the area. We had a very comfortable stay - thank you so much for making our holiday memorable!

Sadly we had a very uncomfortable stay
The outdoor property was nice. Please put up some curtains or shades. When staying in an unknown area it's very unsettling feeling like you are in a fishbowl in all the common areas. Not one window had privacy in the entire main level which is street view. The master bed mattress was so bad that I woke up with shoulder, back and hip pain and suffered the entire next day. Please note I'm 115lbs with no back issues. My husband still has back pain 3 days later. The second night I couldn't face that bed again and went down to the unoccupied bedroom on the main level but couldn't fall asleep for the window was right next to the bed with no shade and street level. I felt anyone could just look in. The second bedroom upstairs the bed collapsed for they have these "too short" wooden planks holding up the mattress. So my son woke up to a miserable bed collapse at 2 in the morning. He tried rebuilding the bed which he did but ended up sleeping on the couch the next 2 nights. We were all exhausted attending my Mother's huge 80th birthday celebration due to such poor sleep. I'm sorry I cannot reccommend this property.

We had a wonderful family gathering at this lovely lakeside home. Plenty of space, super comfy beds and couches, everything clean and in great condition. The pool was perfect for our grandkids, and the adults also enjoyed the canoe and kayak on Walton Lake. We enjoyed our meals on the deck with its peaceful views down the sloping lawn to the lake. Outdoor furniture was perfect for our group of 8. Great hiking trails 15 minutes away! Thoughtful details like plenty of linens, towels, blankets, pillows, phone charging cords. We especially appreciated our host’s warm welcome and attentiveness to every question we had. Ilya made us feel right at home. Would love to visit again. Thank you Ilya!
