A beautiful get away!
Carlton’s place was perfect for a quick get away. Hosts were very helpful when I requested them to add an extra day to our stay. Definitely recommend and will most certainly stay again! Thanks

Cute cottage near beautiful lake
My family and I rented this house to ski at Sugarloaf and see the total eclipse in April 2024. The house was perfect for our purposes. The house is in a community with shared spaces and is a 40 minute drive to the mountain. We enjoyed the communal fire pit and made friends with neighbors. Note that in order to get into the bedroom with the full size bed, you will have to walk through the bedroom with the bunk beds. Loved our stay!

Cabin needed light repairs
The host was very accommodating and easy to get a hold of when needed. This is a seasonal cabin and needed to be opened and aired out much earlier than our arrival. The cabin was well cleaned and stocked with the necessities. Pest control should be a priority especially during the colder months when left unoccupied.

Perfect for the Price
Very pleasant experience. We came week after the fourth of July. Only one other family here. We had the campground to ourselves. The only complaint if I even had one ( which I dont ) is that it is unclear how to get to the communal dock to swim off of. Other than that, it was an amazing week! Thanks again Carlton

Beautiful lake
Overall the location of the cabin was amazing. Amazing views. The size of the cabin was just perfect for what we needed. Things to improve would be to have someone come in and clean before guests arrive. There were a lot of spiders and we had a mouse that visited with us. He had left poop in a lot of places in the cabin. Another suggestion would be to have dehumidifiers. Every night when going to bed the beds were extremely damp to the point of almost not being able to sleep in them.

This Cabin with surrounding outside Decks with plenty of outside sitting .Nice Table an Chairs plenty of them, Charcoal grill while looking over Lake . Our Family brought boat over for a few hours and had a Blast between raindrops . We used dock to pick up Family members and Some Lady's had their Chairs on dock watching kids swim and would not move for people to get by Made it difficult .

The location was great - good view too. The place was larger than expected and very open. It had everything we needed. The only downside was the small shower, other than that everything was great!

Overall the cabin was nice. Had plenty of supplies and the beds were comfortable. We didn't use all of the beds just a couple. The heavy traffic and speeding trucks were sort of scary. Wondered if they were going to hit the cabin. The place was clean and rustic. The wooden counter was beautiful.

Beautiful cabin close to the water
Small cabin with everything you need expect dish cloths and dish towels. Had a hard time finding where to go to get to the water. Mix up with time a check in....

Nice, roomy camp with great deck!
This camp is nice with plenty of open area for family to gather. The Beds were very comfortable, the deck is large and great for gathering (we played cornhole on the deck). It is a little walk to the water, not bad but if you want to be able to see your boat, fishing gear etc. it isn't possible from this camp and the boat slip at the common dock is further than something you want to be making several trips to and from. Sometimes it seemed tricky being sure of what was and wasn't common area access. Overall a nice area and a quiet little community. The owner was very pleasant and communicaton was good! Thank you!

Lovely camp
Lovely camp, amazing countertops and plenty of space for the whole family. Unfortunately the camp is a duplex and the outside space is in full view of your neighbors. The beach is lovely but a bit far from the cabin. The shared area ls are nice but the shared fire pit was full of leaves and grass cuttings so it was unusable, our kids were pretty disappointed that we couldn’t have a fire and make s’mores.
