The house is beautiful, comfy, and clean! It is great for a couple of families or a group of friends. Plenty of room to sleep on comfortable beds and spread out your visit and activities around the properties on couches, tables, outdoor furniture, and on the dock! The hot tub was clean and easy to use. The state park nearby has nice walking trails. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The hosts were friendly and responsive. The neighborhood is calm and quiet, making for a nice get away.

Worth every penny

This property was perfect for our sprawling family to spend quality time together! It was clean and comfortable and was stocked very well especially in the kitchen and baths. Even had swings and a little slide for the youngest family members. Lots of toys and games for rainy days too. The rest of the family enjoyed the hot tub and game tables downstairs. Would happily rent here again.

Nice house in Fox Lake

We enjoyed our family stay at this home. Check in was easy and the owners were very responsive. The kitchen was well stocked. Beds were comfy. The dock and covered area by the water was nice and we enjoyed using the lily pad. The house could have been a bit cleaner and I wish I would have read the listing more closely that one of the "bathrooms" is an outdoor shower. Otherwise, it was a fun week

Comfortable Stay With Amazing Views

This house was perfect for a ski trip with friends. It was spacious, beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was fully equipped. There was enough parking for 4 cars, and the proximity to Wilmot was great. Note: The neighbor is not the friendliest and was pretty confrontational when we accidentally parked in the wrong spot. The hosts were very responsive and helpful so that the situation wasn't escalated.

Amazing Time - We Had A Blast!!!

Our family group ranges from age 4 to 72. We all had a fantastic time at this amazing house. It is fully stocked with anything you need. Everything is clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kids LOVED the lily pad that's available for use. The outdoor spaces are well arranged and cared for; they even provided firewood for our campfire. You will NOT be disappointed with this lovely rental.
