We booked this property ahead of time hoping to have a relaxing weekend but unfortunately the host did not make us feel welcome at all. We arrived at the property at 3:10 p.m. 50 minutes before the 4:00 p.m. check in and our daughter needed to use the bathroom. The cleaning lady was still cleaning the house and I got an angry call from the owner to leave the property immediately because it was not 4:00 p.m. yet. When I told her that my daughter needed to use the bathroom, she gave me directions to a public bathroom five minutes away. This honestly ruined our entire stay. We left as instructed, but the feeling of enjoying the property was gone.Also, despite paying in full upon booking, we received an additional bill for community fees two days prior to arrival. While I believe the owner that this fee is charged by the community where the house is located, she should have included it and calculate it into the initial reservation, making the price more transparent during booking.There are so many rules to this house which were sent to us via emails and messages and we were hesitant to touch or use anything. We also had to upload a lot of personal information such as IDs, car info etc. which took a long time and was tedious. Unfortunately I will not recommend this listing.

We had a wonderful stay. Plenty to do with the kids on the lake(paddle boards, kayaks) and the community has everything you would need for bored teenagers. House is exactly as described in the listing. Main floor with the windows has an amazing view of the lake.

We had such a lovely family stay! We were only there for 4 days and experienced a temperature range of about 50 degrees outside. This means we were able to enjoy every thing this house has to offer. From wintertime hot tub dips, to boating and fishing, sandcastle making and s’mores around the fire pit. This home was even equipped with some amazing toys for our young kids to play with. It was the perfect place for an early season spring break. Thank you so much for your hospitality!!

The cabin was everything we wanted and exactly as advertised on the app. Our group was thrilled at the amount of space of the cabin, the activities were perfect and the hosts were very communicative. We loved our stay and hope to be able to book again!!! The views of the lake were amazing, the wild life was out in full force and the area is surrounded by skiing, tubing, and many other family activities.

Fabulous place! My friend and I treated ourselves to a stay here to celebrate my birthday and it was perfect. The view of the lake is beautiful, we loved the hot tub, and sitting around the campfire. It is amazing to have your very own beach to launch a kayak from! I am spoiled now. The house is nicely decorated and cozy. The beds were comfy and the house had everything we needed.Perfect trip! Five stars!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay at Swept Away. It was absolutely perfect from the scenery to the boating to the hot tub to the fishing. Mike and Lisa have provided so much to keep everyone entertained.. they purposely have gone out of their way to make your stay the best that it can be. The kitchen is very well stocked and we made all of our meals there. What I really loved was being in the kitchen cooking and being able to look out the huge windows and be able have a view of the lake at all times. We have stayed at Arrowhead in the past but we have to say that staying at Swept Away really did ‘sweep us away’ — when we plan our vacation next year, it will be here. Mike and Lisa were always right there to communicate with us and were the perfect hosts.
This is the view that greeted us the first evening we arrived!
