We had 5 adults stay for a weekend, and it was excellent. The rental house was clean and tidy, the check-in was easy with clear instructions, and the unit was well supplied with everything we needed. The deck and dock were lovely, with a great view and access to the lake, and the kitchen/living ng room made for a perfect space for everyone to be together inside the house. Zara was an excellent communicator both before the weekend and throughout the time away, and was also very accommodating for us. All together this was a tremendous rental and I'd highly recommend it.

Beautiful lake view, peaceful, scenic, and exactly what we were hoping for.The property itself is clean, bright, spacious, and incredibly cozy. It’s clear how much care and attention has gone into making guests feel comfortable and at home.The host was truly wonderful to deal with, she was incredibly kind, accommodating, and communicative from start to finish. She went above and beyond to make our stay memorable, and it was such a pleasure interacting with her.We would highly recommend this property to families, couples, and outdoor lovers alike who are looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway in Highlands East right on beautiful and big Paudash Lake! We will absolutely be back and can’t wait to return!

We had a wonderful stay! Even in the winter, the location is beautiful and the water views from the house are gorgeous. Our host was so helpful and always quick to reply.Just a heads-up to pack your own towels and toiletries! We also wanted to mention for fellow pet owners that the stairs are open-backed; our dog couldn't quite manage them, and since the bedrooms are all upstairs, it’s worth noting for those travelling with pups. We loved it here and are already planning a return trip for the summertime!

Great views in the morning to have a coffee on the porch and welcome the new day!! And a warm crisp blazing fire to relax at the end of a long day of hiking and walking the dog.

We were a group of friends/family and stayed for two nights in October. The place is super clean with all essentials you need. Kitchen was equipped with new dish sets, utensils, cups, pots and whatever you need for a pleasant stay. Appliances were also clean and fully functioning. We enjoyed both sitting around the fire pit outside at night and canoeing/kayaking during the day. The built-in wood stove brough warmth and good vibe while we had a movie night.Check-in and check-out was very easy. Zara was quickly responding to all questions and enquiries with prompt directions. We cannot wait to come back in spring!
