Just minutes outside of all of the amenities of Cranbrook this lake cabin was a dream. The swimming dock was a wonderful feature and although there was only 4 of us we couldn’t believe how many comfortable beds, linens, towels and comforts beyond what you would require in the kitchen and bathrooms were provided. A modern barbeque and plenty of seating is provided on the deck which we continuously enjoyed.

Beautiful lake front get away for our entire family
We had a great vacation with our entire family, 3 kids and both my parents and my husbands parents. All of us enjoyed a very relaxing week in this clean, bright & roomy cabin located on a quiet road that curves around the beautiful lake. There is a public beach a short walk away, which our children enjoyed for a swim. The house is well equipped; big kitchen with everything you need. Plenty of storage available everywhere. The dining room table was perfect for 4 adults and there was plenty of room for everyone in the living room. The living room has high ceilings and is very comfortable with a pull-out bed in the couch if needed. Plenty of windows and patio doors overlooking the lake - great view to watch the wildlife! We appreciated the real wood fireplaces in the evening when everyone was ready to wind down for bed. All bedrooms had plenty of room; the beds were very comfortable with two good size bathrooms. The layout of the house and the bedrooms gave us plenty of space if we needed quiet time too. The deck was a good size with plenty of seats; We used the BBQ several times during our stay. We enjoyed beautiful views of the lake from the upper deck and star-gazing at night. It was so relaxing to sit on the deck with a morning coffee, savoring the views of this serene lake, and then every evening we sat outside enjoying the sunsets. We saw many birds in the trees and deer wandering through the expansive backyard too. This is great deal for a six bed lake front cabin!

Reconnect with Family
Our large family of 8 adults and 6 children truly enjoyed our wonderful family reunion at the lake. We love the new path to the lake because it is perfect for our elderly grand parents and our young children. There is seating for all of us to eat at one time too enjoy telling stories. The lake house and the lake front property are exactly as described and we recommend this property for family reunions. Two of our children caught their first fish right off the dock here and they are still talking about it. We loved it here and we plan on coming back next year.

Perfect for our Family!
The cabin was perfect for our family trip to reconnect together in the mountains. The cabin was clean and had everything that we need just as we read on the listing. We especially enjoyed our walks around the lake. The owner was responsive and he answered all of our questions immediately and was very thoughtful. Our children loved sleeping in the cozy bunk bed. We recommend the cabin to our friends and family. We will be back again soon!

Disappointing to say the least
This property lacks basic comfort and security. The majority of the windows don’t function, one wasn’t attached. The door handles are broken, the furniture, save one couch was ripped, broken and outside moldy and threadbare. The dishes and pots were dirty was was the BBQ. There was garbage, glass and cigarette butts strewn around the yard. The canoes were broken and unsafe, with broken paddles floating inside. The bathroom was dirty, the shower curtain in tatters and the face cloths and towels were falling apart. While the location is beautiful however everything else was truly disappointing. There were warnings posted on tape and scribbled notes about broken the dishwasher, that beeped constantly and to not fill the garbage can as there is only 1 cleaner. We were absolutely embarrassed to welcome our family to the property while in town for our daughters wedding. This is by far the worst experience of renting we’ve had over dozens of trips in last twenty years.

Gateway in sunny, warm Cranbrook
Great location, Definitely great for a family gathering - Rustic, charming lake cabin, nice bedrooms/bathrooms setup but VRBO description/listing is a bit outdated Not all amenities are still available Living room furnitures needs upgrade, upkeep on the infrastructure have been neglected but considering that the place is up for sale, the owner for this rental property may not want to put any money in

Filthy House. Feel Scammed
Jerry is unfortunately the worst host I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. His House was very DIRTY. The sheets in all 5 bedroom were filthy with hair/crumbs/dirt. We had to clean all counter /table surfaces and floor before we unpacked. The host/owner lives out of country and was not communicating with us in any helpful way. He threatened me to not leave a review and then he would refund us 50%. The refund never happened. It’s a shame. the lake is pretty. I feel scammed. And the filthy property inside and out ruined our weekend

Family getaway
This was our second summer at the lake house. The location of the property is ideal. Being right on the lake is perfect for kids. The property could use a little tlc, but for the price and location it’s a great value. Would come back again.
