We have been staying at Maggie & Kyle’s place now over 5 years with our pups. To tell you it’s our happy place doesn’t do it justice. If you’re looking to have a secluded cabin on a small lake and just relax this is it. From sunrise to sunset you can’t beat this place. Maggie & Kyle have made it easy to keep coming back. We’ll see next fall Ted & Joyce, Cameo & Clarence.

We had a fabulous week once again at this beautiful, relaxing, and peaceful cottage. The hosts are wonderful and the cottage is extremely clean, comfortable, and well stocked! There are beautiful touches throughout and the hosts have made wonderful improvements that make the cottage even more comfortable (which didn’t seem possible)! We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing, reading, hiking, swimming, day tripping, and eating great food. Many thanks, Maggie and Kyle for your thoughtfulness and hospitality! We love spending time at Vasha and have already booked our next visit.

This was an amazing stay! We loved the house, the view over the lake is incredible! It was an incredibly peaceful stay, with lots of things to do on the water. We spent a lot of time fishing with our kids and letting them swim out to the floating dock. Everyone had a great time. The house is very clean and there are the amenities were great. The hosts certainly think of everything! I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a quiet place to stay that really want to enjoy some time on the water.

A wonderful space to rest, read, write, and explore. We loved the woods, the very cozy cabin & the lake — truly a gem! So very appreciated being in stillness. We’ll be back. Thank you.

Lovely lake house

Spent four days here with my wife, infant son, and two dogs. Great location, lots of privacy, perfect for dogs. The dirt road to the house is very steep, but worth it for the privacy. Overall the house was well stocked with cooking /kitchen supplies, towels, lake towels, etc. I gave a 4 out of 5 stars for cleanliness due to a fare number of carpenter ants.. but it’s a lake house in the summer so no surprise there. Definately would rent again!

Didn’t think it could get better

We have stayed here for the past 5 yrs. Maggie & Kyle bought it last year and when I tell you I didn’t think it could better I was wrong. They have taken a cottage and made it into an upscale lake house. When sitting in the main living area you feel you are part of the lake. Between watching the loons or the bald eagles nesting across the cove it is perfect! Can’t wait for our next visit. Ted, Joyce with Cameo & Clarence.

Magical experience, and we will definitely return.

Absolutely beautiful and pristine location. We were looking for relaxation, and we certainly found it. The cottage was cozy and accommodating. While inside, we enjoyed the new large windows and doors that allowed us watch nature unfold right on our doorstep.

Wonderful Trip

I hold this place in such high regard that I felt compelled to return this year. Its seclusion and privacy offers a truly serene retreat. They’ve made a lot of improvements which feels great. My family loves it. The view is beautiful, we enjoyed drinking our morning coffee listening to the loons. Would definitely stay again!

Slippery rock step

The house and location was perfect. Our hosts were very nice. The only thing they have Rock steps. That are very slippery with the morning air never mind light rain. I went to step down on the step, fell and broke my ankle. So needless to say, our whole week was ruined. Maggie and her husband, both were very thoughtful and checked on me almost daily. All I would say is the steps need to be replaced before somebody breaks their neck.

Little bit of Heaven here on earth

If we could rate it higher we would. This was our 4th visit to this property and our best. Maggie & Kyle are perfect hosts and the “little” extras, firewood, charcoal etc.. were welcome surprises. The house is private and secluded but a quick ride to anything you’d wish for. We wanted to unplug for the week and that’s what we accomplished. Us and our 2 dogs can’t wait for our spring visit. Thanks Maggie& Kyle for sharing your property. Ted, Joyce and Cameo & Clarence

Quiet Lakeside Goodness

What a lovely spot. Maggie's place was a wonderful place for me, my husband, and another couple to decompress from our busy schedules. The cottage is cozy and provided every simple creature comfort we needed including a new gas grill that we loved to cook on! Our very favorite thing was to make a nightly fire in the fire pit and watch the sunset - thanks for the firewood too! Hearing the loons day & night was magical. My dog "nephew" loved the dock and taking a swim any time he liked. Thanks for your hospitality and we hope to come back! CB & SW / AR & TD & Smokey New York City

Peaceful mini- retreat

Our stay was just what we needed ! The deeply rich natural environment & stillness except for my desired loon presence , kingfishers , hummingbirds & dragon flies ! I relished my daily swims, walks , jacuzzi soaks , fireside time & the brilliance of the misty mornings , golden sunsets & starry sky! The abode provided comfy seating & beds & spacious open areas with an expansive wall of windows& unique artistic touches .

Vacation Stay

The lake house was very relaxing, peaceful, and picturesque. Very secluded, just us, the loons, and a revisiting heron.Took lots of photos. Read a book. Also saw 2 turtles mating. The dog had a great time. She loved swimming and catching sticks. Only disappointment was that our attempted sunset cruise around Wild Goose Pond was cut short.The motorized boat that was left for our use broke down and we had to paddle back. Aside from that, we had a lovely vacation filled with many beautiful sunsets. .

A nice place, but...

This is a nice, warm feeling cabin. It is very private and is well appointed. The host has stocked it well. All the dishes, bedding, towels ect. The appliances are almost new. Communication was good. Plenty of parking. A nice dock with 2 Jon boats and several canoes available with life preservers. Beds are comfortable. Ceiling fans everywhere. Very little lighting at night and one lamp wouldn't work. Could just be me, I don't see well in low light. But even my wife was wondering why the lighting was so dim. One bedroom has an very old air conditioner, but both rooms had ceiling fans. The downside: There is a HUGE snapping turtle that lives under the dock, Like really huge 40lbs or more! We would not go in the water even though everything we read online says it is safe. When you see the claws on this thing you will understand. The owners should make renters aware of this thing so a choice can be made before renting. A more minor issue is the poor excuse for a grill. The owners do provide charcoal and lighter, but the grill is 6 inches wide and about 30 inches long. It is inadequate for a rental that you pay so much $ for and it is a mystery why they have this poor piece of equipment when most everything else is nice. I can't imagine cooking for a family on this thing. Food easily fell off the grill when we tried to use it. Overall rating would be 3.5 -4 Would have been 4.5 without the turtle

The listing said it had AC. It did not. The charcoal grill was in very poor shape. Very small and did not work well for a lot of food. The fire wood they supplied was not very good and needed to be carried to the firepit. My review would be they need to work on a lot. For what we paid, I felt we didn’t get our monies worth. My rate would be a 3 out of 5 stars.

Perfect getaway

My three kids (ages 4-10) and I, along with our dog, had the most perfect time here for a few days. We loved the quiet lake, location of the home and the home itself. I've rented many vacation houses and this was by far the most thoughtfully stocked! Easily within 15 minutes to anything you might need but feels like you're in the middle of nowhere. We were all sad to leave and the kids have made me promise we'll be back again!
