Perfect place to decompress
This was our first vacation in years and was exactly what we were looking for! The house was clean, quiet and not far from all the thing on our list. Wished we’d of stayed longer! We saw loons and even had an eagle land in the backyard to enjoy a fish. Totally recommend this place and would absolutely stay again if we were in the area.

Room with a view
My family used this beautiful property as a hub for my daughters wedding that was in the area. Their is a beautiful view of the Lake from two of the bedrooms, the master bathroom as well as the living area. Was very very nice! The property was clean, well stocked and welcoming. During our down time, the kids took out some of the water toys and enjoyed a nice kayak paddle around the shoreline and paddle boat ride. Our family from Alaska was thrilled the water was shallow and warm so the kids could play. I can only imagine how beautiful the views will be in the fall. Would love to stay again!

Loved the Laid Back Loon!
My family and I spent a week here visiting extended family and friends in the area. We were all impressed by the property! Perfect location on the lake, beautiful yard, and outdoor space. Inside was incredibly clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Thank you for the family vacation!

Weekend Family Stay
Laidback Loon was a perfect place for our family get-together. (We heard and saw loons, so the house is appropriately named.) It was so relaxing having a well-designed, new, and very clean house with plenty of bathrooms and space for five adults and a child. Although it rained a bit when we were there, we could still enjoy the lake view through the wide back door and windows. The lake is shallow but was good for our grandson. (A bonus for our grandson was the small park right across the road.) The patio with table and grill and the firepit area were both good backyard hangout spots. Thank you, Chuck and Darcy, it was good!

We had a great day at this property. I love that the rooms all have Roku connected TVs. It was nice that the lake was shallow by the dock for the kids. Place was extremely clean and comfortable. We would stay here again.

Super Relaxing
We stayed for just a few nights but wish it could have been longer. Everything was very clean, plenty of kitchen gadgets and bathroom towel situation was perfect. From the pictures I thought the house was situated further away from lake but it was closer, so a happy surprise.

Sweet Lake Views
Immaculately clean, thoughtfully decorated, with comfy beds, well-equipped kitchen, located in a quiet spot, yet with easy access to the metro area. One note: grandma and grandpa could not navigate the 10 or so steps down to the patio and lake (no handrail). Our hosts were very timely with communications and information. A great stay!
