Best Rental Ever Stayed!
The cabin is beautiful and clean with every amenity you need and more. We were a family of 7 and enjoyed the view of Bossung Lake. We loved kayaking and fishing. The owner was very responsive to all questions and was local in case we needed anything. She was a delight to talk to and learn the history of the cabin and the others around. The neighborhood kitty, Felix, came to say and wanted lots of love. We hope to be back soon and make more memories.

We wanted a getaway for our family, this 5 bedroom cabin fit us perfect. The kayaks and the smaller lake right behind the house was perfect. We hope to get a chance to make this an annual family trip.

Little Slice of Heaven
I am blown away by how wonderful this property was to stay at and how wonderful the hosts were! First of all, the beauty of the views from both the front and back of the home are astounding. This property was incredibly clean, spacious and well supplied far beyond what any of us could have expected. Toiletries, food, condiments, life jackets, kayaks, bikes, towels galore, the hot tub, grill and fire pit (all amazing!), badminton, croquet and a variety of balls for the kids. Also, every bedroom had a television and the internet worked wonderfully the entire time, including the surround sound in the living room. The hosts were super responsive and friendly. We ran out of propane one night while grilling and a gentleman arrived within minutes to install a new tank. Talk about service! Medo’s restaurant was also a great recommendation by the host and we also enjoyed renting jet skis. The lake was clean and beautiful and the surrounding community was quiet and equally lovely. I would love to live here, honestly! The lake is close to and easily accessible from the backyard for kayaks, but not too close to where I was extremely worried about my toddler running off and hopping into the water. The backyard is huge and grassy and just lovely for playing and relaxing in. All in all, I cannot recommend this place highly enough and I hope we can come back soon.

Everything was great! Was hoping that we could be a bit closer to the water although with infants and small children it was probably safer. There were some problems with the refrigerator, although the owner brought out a repair man immediately. The house was very clean and had everything in it that we needed.

Awesome Cabin!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin! The cabin was very clean and was ready at check-in. Theresa was a great host and was very quick in responding to all of our questions. We enjoyed taking the kayaks out on the lake and driving the golf cart to the local beach. Even though the days were hot, we were still able to enjoy the hot tub in the shade. This is a wonderful property and would highly recommend staying here!

Great location in Johnson Lake!
We just returned from a great vacation at the house in Johnson Lake. The house is located on a smaller lake that connects to Johnson Lake. It is a short walk to the public beach out Johnson Lake, made easier by the golf cart and bikes included in the rental. The house was spacious for several families and all the amenities that we were hoping for. The owners are very friendly and accommodating to any requests. Will be returning next year!

A retirement community
This home is beautiful and stocked with everything you could ever need. It’s nestled in a retirement community setting. The owners are never more than a few houses away, in and out of the house all day and into the evening. Be sure to read all the pamphlets as there are a lot of rules. The kids kept telling us there were flash lights in the yard after dark, I thought they were kidding until I stayed up with our baby one night and saw it for myself. I have never felt safer in a rental home as we were being watched always. The owners are so hard working and put so much sweat into this home and they are very proud of it, and it is really nice. We ended up leaving 3 days early as we felt very uncomfortable, and felt as if we were taking their home from them, as this home is where they live when not rented out. The owners told us the community watches and would report to them also if rules were broken. We are just a family, not spring breakers or girls gone wild lol. In my opinion, the owners should probably not rent this house out as they just love it and it’s hard for them to see anyone else in it.
