Amazing place to stay

Our stay was awesome! The hosts communications was great when we had some questions. It was clean, comfortable and well equipped. the netting on the deck made it almost bug free sitting outside in the evening. The lake was beautiful and fishing was a blast. We would definitely stay here again.

Lake trip

The house was amazing! It was very peaceful and quiet. My wife, son and I had a blast. It was nice to get away from everything for a few days. Joshua was very quick to responding if any questions arose. Great host! We will definitely be coming back. Wasnt quite warm enough to enjoy swimming but we cruised around in the boat still which was a great bonus. We would 100% recommend. Thanks for letting us enjoy your home! Cant wait to come back!

Not just a summer escape!

My wife wanted a winter cabin escape to celebrate her birthday, and this was the perfect spot! Nothing beat waking up in the morning with a fresh cup of coffee and watching the snow fall on the lake. There were plenty of things to do, our children (7 & 5) had a great time as well as my parents, who joined us to celebrate. We'd love to return both in the summer and again in the winter!

Great escape

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean and tidy with lots of extra touches provided. House had everything we needed. Enjoyed the fishing right from the dock and only about 50 ft from house. Definitely hope to rent it again and bring some additional family to enjoy it too

The house and property were well kept and very clean. There was plenty to do as the house came with kayak's and a paddle boat which seem to be a big hit. It is a beautiful place. The host was very accommodating and made sure we were well taken care of.

Great Stay

We had a wonderful stay at The Escape on Long Lake. The house was very comfortable and has very comfortable beds. The fall weather allowed us to enjoy the deck one afternoon and the beautiful fall colors enhanced the view across the lake. Our host was very responsive when we had questions and we totally enjoyed our time. We'd like to come back in the summer when we could enjoy the lake as well.
