The back deck and fire area are big and welcoming. Always nice when linens and towels are taken care of. Lots of games to play if the weather isn’t what you hoped.

Great house for a family. Plenty to do.
The property was as advertised. Visited over Christmas Holidays. Best feature was the game room. The upstairs great room was recently updated and very comfortable. Great TV over fireplace, big dining room table and well stocked kitchen. The bedrooms were warm and comfortable. Some parts of the house are a bit rustic but everything works. Wildlife all around. Close to restaurants and ski areas. Hosts were accommodating and communicated well. Overall, we had a great stay!

As Promised
We booked this place over Columbus Day weekend as it was fairly equidistant for 5 HS friends reuniting. We're pretty low maintenance in general, but Tim and BJ made sure that we were all set up for any activities or reservations that we may desire. I'm fairly sure that we'll all be buying shuffleboard tables for our houses to practice for the next get together. Yes there are leaves and spiders and debris here and there, but it's the woods and that's kinda the point. Very happy with the stay and would definitely recommend.

Owners are not easy to reach, especially with problems during our stay.
Visited this home at the end of July 2021. Had lots of questions prior to visiting the home, and after many phone calls and emails, unfortunately we had a lot of trouble getting a response from the owners. They seem to be very nice when you get ahold of them, but good luck trying to do so. We were lured into this house by its location to Lake Harmony, its ability to sleep 12, and their generous offer of giving a discount to first responders, doctors and educators. In our group, we had a few teachers and an MD, so this was a nice offering. However, even after sending proof of employment as a teacher, the owners still haven't submitted this discount. They've ignored the topic practically every time we emailed about it. The house itself is moderately sized, and has a number of decently spaced bedrooms. However, as it is a rental property, the owners were very cheap on things like hollow body doors and sub-par doorknobs. (bedrooms and bathrooms) We know this because one of the doorknobs locked up and prevented two of us from getting out of the room for close to 30 minutes. After we finally unscrewed the broken door knob, and pushed the door in, we were able to get out. We tried to notify the owners as soon as possible, and they ignored our messages. Just to add insult to injury, not only did the owner NOT respond to us, or even email to see if everyone was ok, but they sent me a bill for a new door. Unbelievable!! Also, the owners have digital locks installed on the exterior doors, and they only provide the renters with the code for the bottom lock. When we arrived back from a day trip, the top lock had tripped somehow, and we were locked out of the house. Again, after notifying the owners, there was no response. As far as the constant inability to communicate, the owners claimed there were medical issues running through the family, which prevented them from responding to any messages. However, the owners were extremely difficult to reach prior to our arrival, so I'm not so sure how applicable this is to our stay. Long story short, this was a VERY expensive stay for two nights, and I appreciate the owners seem like a nice husband and wife. However, I would think pretty hard about spending lots of money on a rental like this where the owners can just disappear when you need them to respond.

Great Experience
From booking to arrival back home, this was a wonderful experience. The house was perfect for our family trip to celebrate my birthday. There was plenty of room, the house was stocked with all the kitchen necessities for cooking meals and the pool table and fooseball games were a lot of fun on a rainy day! The owners were FANTASTIC and very friendly. They made great recommendations for things to do and places to eat. They even surprised Me at the restaurant with a slice of amazing carrot cake on my birthday! Very thoughtful and went out of their way to ensure we enjoyed our time in their home.

Terrific Getaway!
This house was just as advertised. It had enough room for our whole group and fun activities at the house to keep us entertained. We loved the game room, hot tub, and fire pit. We did two excellent hikes and hired a boat for tubing and wake-boarding. The house was comfortable and we had all the kitchen items needed to cook three meals a day. The community is inviting and friendly and we loved getting to know Lake Harmony. Our communication with Tim and Breanna was simple, easy and very quick. They helped us prep for the trip and gave us ideas for activities. Perfect way to escape for a few days and would go back again!
