This home is a 10/10 for sure! The large, beautiful home in a spectacular location would be enough for praise but the amenities are too good to believe. The game room, the pool table, the stocked kitchen, the real wood fireplace, the rope swings, sleds, kayaks, every appliance you might need, a medicine cabinet that has every first aid item imaginable, and 3 great bedrooms plus sofa beds. And somehow the setting is perfectly remote while being only 5 minutes from the lake. We're already planning our next visit.

Great Cabin

We enjoyed our stay at Alexander's cabin. The house and the property were very nice and clean, there was plenty of room, and the place was well stocked with the essentials. A short drive to the lake made for a great trip. Will definitely consider staying here again if we are in the area.

What a wonderful stay!

We had planned on using the house as home base for outdoor activities for 4 adults and 2 teens, but the weather had something else in mind. We experienced rain during much of our visit and had to hole up in the house. However, the fireplace, TV area on the second floor made it a wonderful place to hang out. Highly recommend!

wonderful retreat

The house was spacious and welcoming, and well-stocked with supplies. The kayaks, paddleboard and floaties were a big plus as was the proximity to the lake. Pool table and games provided fun social time for all ages. Alex promptly answered all my questions. Everything was in place, so our group only had to enjoy our time together. Would come again.
