Spectacular! Great area...great house!
Review Submitted: August 18, 2009

Our extended family vacations together every year...and our group has quite a list of must haves for a house (every family needs a bathroom, allergy friendly - no pets allowed, on the lake, kid friendly, etc). We were a little weirded out by the animal decor...but we're city folk I guess!
The house is set up great for three families to have their own space. Our family was in the basement with two rooms, a family room, a kitchenette area and doors to go outside to the beach. It worked out great. The bunk rooms could each sleep 6. If you have kids that would be sleeping in a top bunk, you will want to pack your bed rails from home because the top bunks are open on the sides (no safety rail/guard).
The house is set back off the paved roads and it appeared most of the houses along the lake were on the newer side. The house next door, which is lovely also, was rented out the week we were there. We shared a large driveway area and the beach front area with them. It was kind of fun to not feel quite so secluded, but still have a very private setting.
The owners, Daratony's, were wonderful to work with and the house was extremely clean.
I would recommend this place any season of the year. Fall would be particularly amazing, but I could see winter and skiing be a lot of fun too! The area is great for all ages - and stay two weeks - one is not enought! We have all little kids, but the family renting next door had all ages, including teenagers. I think this house would be particularly good a group with lots of teenagers.
Oh, yeah, we saw a cougar (we think!) just north of Leland! Crazy!
