Awesome Experience
Booking this property was such a wonderful experience. It easily fit 11 people and did not feel over crowded. The area surrounding had many great places to go within walking distance if needed. Highly recommend the brewery downtown by the lake. The lake itself was beautiful! The beach on the property is a perfect spot with shallow clear water. One side of the lake is super shallow and the other side is about 30ft deep and was awesome for surfing. 10/10 would recommend!

Me and my family enjoyed staying here!! The house was clean and was supplied well with whatever we needed. The garage had so many things in it to use. The sand, beach, and lake was awesome! Close to the Paul Bunyan Trail for bike riding was great also! I would highly recommend!

Nice Location Right on Birch Lake
The house provided a nice base for our family lake vacation in Hackensack. The house is a bit dated which was fine for us. One concern (which could be a deal breaker for some) is the lack of doors on bedrooms, including the master. It feels strange to have only curtains separating living space from bedroom/bathroom/shower. The new stairs, dock, and lake access were wonderful as was the location close to downtown.

Hackensack Getaway
We loved our stay in Hackensack. The location of the property was walking/biking distance to town - perfect! The sandy beach, no weeds, plenty of space for the water toys. The house was spacious for our group of 8. The kitchen was fully stocked - wonderful. Only complaint is that the floors weren't very clean when we got there but we vacuumed and swept and it was all fine. The property manager was also very attentive.

Enough space for a large family
Pros: Large house to accommodate a big family. Nice swimming area/beach. Life jackets, tubes, grills, bikes,etc. provided. (never got grill to work however) Cons: Not enough supplies provided - (4 garbage bags total for 5 days & 14 people, hand soaps old and less than half full, kitchen soap under 1/4 full) House was fairly dirty upon arrival (food on dishes in cupboards, lots of dog hair even though pets were not allowed) we spend time doing dishes and cleaning before unloading our stuff. We were never able to get the TV's to work and host wasn't helpful in getting them working for us. Some of the deck had loose railings and a rotten board that can be unsafe for children.

Great outdoors, not so great indoors
We loved the lake and outdoor amenities. This was the highlight for our group of 8, and the only reason for this higher rating. The house was not clean, we left it cleaner than it was when we arrived. Garbage left throughout the house, including receipts from over six months ago. The main bedrooms do not have doors (there are curtains), which isn't terrible, but may be noisy if folks are early risers or night owls in your group. Lower level is completely unused, aside from a bathroom, which seemed a bit awkward given the large amount of space.

The property was just right for our group of 6 adults and 8 kids. Walk in access to the water, nice beach and a great dock for fishing. The owner was extremely responsive and the house was well kept and furnished. Highly recommended..

Previous Guests Provide Cleaning for Next Guests
Maybe we missed it in the original listing, but an email from the owner the day of our arrival indicated that the listing included no cleaning fee. Guests are expected to clean before departing in preparation for the next guests. When we arrived, the house was certainly not clean. The second day of our stay we found 2 plates in the middle of the stack in the kitchen cabinet that had about 1/8th inch of some type of filthy liquid standing on them. We found dirty towels hanging by one of the showers along with used bar soap in the shower. All of the showers were filthy. The trash had been taken out, but nobody bothered sweeping the floors since we found food on them, including in rooms where there were signs asking that no food or drink be brought into the room. We absolutely left the house in better condition than we found it. Access to the Paul Bunyan trail was excellent. The dock was nice. The "beach" was down a fairly steep hill from the house and was a minefield of goose droppings. There was a brand new gas grill, but no propane tank, and there was a charcoal grill.

Lake House
Location is terrific - right on the lake, close to town for ice cream, tennis, pickle ball, and also to state trails for walking and biking. The house is well-equipped, everything you need in the kitchen, tons of sheets, towels, blankets, and lots of windows for light and views of the kids playing on the beach. There’s a nice dock for fishing - lots of sunnies and bass. It’s feels very secluded and private.

Family Wedding and Reunion
We had a great time. Plenty of room for all of us. The lake and sandy beach were a hit with everyone. Enjoyed s’mores and visiting around the fire pit. Owner was very available and responsive to questions and any concerns. The home was clean and kitchen was very adequately supplied with wares for meal preparations. One thing that might be good to know- the photo of the yard between house and lake is a little deceptive. It is quite a steep drop. It would only be a problem if someone was real out of shape or had difficulty walking.

Amazing stay!
This place was a great location for my big family! It is close to walking trails and the bait store! We had so much fun and loved the beach area. We even caught a lot of fish right off the dock. The owners were so nice and easy to get ahold of to answer any questions we had! The house and yard look just like the posting but it is a must see in person. We have already talked about planning another stay!
