About this property

THE GREAT LAKE ESCAPE, AMAZING SPRING FISHING & TOP NOTCH GOLF COURSES!!!

Welcome to our 'Great Lake Escape'. This four season home offers exceptional panoramic views from most areas inside as well as outside on it's wrap around deck and expansive 450 ft of lake shore. 'Escape' today's fast-paced lifestyle or if you seek adventure, you can boat, ski, hunt, hike, fish, explore caves/and or casinos. The lakescape offers family friendly lake frontage that kids and adults are sure to enjoy. There's over an acre of yard, spacious wrap around decks and triple docks, allowing ample opportunities for outdoor fun. Location on a near point lot and idle zone of the lake keeps both street and lake traffic at a minimum. While there are many local attractions and nearby recreational opportunities to enjoy, guests comment most about amazing views of soaring bald eagles, blue herons, deer and wild turkeys; the relaxing sound of the horses hoofs clopping as they pull an Amish buggy across the causeway, the brilliance of the stars at night, and most of all---the perfect peace and indescribable quiet. From fishing to swimming to evening campfires, this is a place you will want to escape to time and time again.

Wonderful family week!

This property was great for our extended family. Loved all of the private outdoor space, from the large decks with beautiful lake views to the ample grassy areas for our 8 young grandkids to roam and play.

1st Family Vacation

Excellent property, great property manager. The only issue was gnats inside on the 2nd floor but we found that if you don't leave the lights on upstairs that the gnats don't show up

Lovely setting

The property was clean and beautiful. The outdoor spaces were fantastic! The issues that we had were with uncomfortable sleeping arrangements. The bunk beds were very creaky and it made sleeping difficult. Also, if you closed the doors to the bedrooms they were super hot so we had to have all bedroom doors open which was not great for privacy or some people trying to sleep in

Labor Day Weekend Golf Outing

Although requested 2 days prior to arrival, did not received instructions regarding how entry was to take place until 2-3 hours before arrival time. Request early check in but was denied. When we arrived the inside temperature was 78 degrees, because the outdoor temp was in the mid 90s it took from 5pm til 2am to get internal temp comfortable enough to sleep. There were dead gnats everywhere inside the house took 2 of us a little over an hour to clean up. WiFi did not work at all. TV had only 8 channels working.

We were unable to stay the weekend due to a broken furnace. We are in the process of being refunded our money. We have received about 75% of the money VRBO is withholding part of the money. We do plan on using this rental in the summer.

Great place for family

I can’t say enough good things about our stay. The property is bit of a drive from Chicago about 4hrs but well worth it! I rented the place for family weekend and we had an amazing time. The adults relaxed and bonded on a beautiful patio overlooking lake, while kids ran, swam, fished and enjoyed outdoors( poor internet connection was a plus) I have to add that Mrs. Brenda was extraordinary from the booking until the last day . She was always available to address questions and give tips on the area. Lastly, my son left his beloved stuffed animal behind but not a problem. The owner promptly shipped back to us and even covered all the shipping costs. We will be defenitly coming back. Thank you .

Amazing lake house!

This amazing lake house slept out entire family of 19. The additional cots were a plus and somehow we NEVER ran out of hot water!! The back deck had a great view of the lake. They also had a large dock that was great for swimming and fishing. 2 kayaks , a canoe, and a 5 person paddle boat were also provided free of charge. The house is at the end of a drive and was secluded from the rest of the homes on the drive. This is a lovely vacation home and would highly recommend it. Also a huge fan of all the nice golf courses within 30 minutes! We had one large issue with the ac unit going out during a very hot day but the owner was there within an hour of us calling. Temporary fix for that evening and the repair man was back out and fixed the issue before 8am the next morning. The owner checked back in with us multiple times to make sure everything was ok. We hope to be back soon!!

Great for large family

The property was great for our large family getaway. Between kids and adults it accommodated all 19 of us. The house was very clean, there was plenty of sleeping space for everyone and the lake views were wonderful. The home is secluded and private but still only a 10 min drive to the grocery and convenient stores. We had a wonderful weekend. I really don’t have any complaints except one thing. All of the bedrooms are on the second floor. Getting up and down the stairs was a little difficult for my elderly grandparents. We made due, but I think it would be helpful to put that in the property listing so others are aware. The only option for downstairs sleeping was the couch or roll away beds, which wouldn’t have worked well for some people. But overall the house was perfect for our large crew and we will likely be back!
