Can’t beat the winter view!
Our family of 21 thoroughly enjoyed our annual winter weekend get away here at the Lighthouse. The view was so gorgeous. Every window was either cozy forest or water as far as the eye can see. The fresh snow and ice formations on the shore made it especially magical. We were especially appreciative of the well stocked kitchen and labeled cupboards. It made our mealtimes so much smoother than our many previous house rentals. We’re a big family and we certainly like to banter more than we agree but we he NOTHING to complain about here at The Light House. Looking forward to next year!

Family getaway
Excellent property for large multigenerational family gathering. Very flexible with check in. Property and kitchen were very well equipped. Only missing kitchen towels (only one provided) and dishwasher soap (none provided for 2 dishwashers). Easy to contact property manager with any questions. Did have issue with septic alarm but was able to resolve after talking with property manager. Otherwise excellent experience. Would re-book 100%.
