Our family had such an enjoyable time at Kevin’s cabin this new years. We had 6 adults, two teen/college age and toddler in our group so the house was a great fit for us with plenty of room for shared meals, family games and hanging out catching up. There was an extensive collection of games and books for us to enjoy as well as the ping pong, fusball and piano downstairs. It was a chilly and snowy visit, so we built a snowman and went xc skiing at Lake Superiors trails. We enjoyed walks around the lake, the Forest Reserve trails and our pup loved the dog park. We also loved the Bethel Woodstock museum. Kevin was a very attentive, informative and kind host from the get go. He was always quick with a reply or offering in advance info to make our stay great. He sent over area guides and shared activities listings with us.

1st rental

This was the first time I rented a place from VRBO. It was fabulous. The house couldn’t have had anything else. I was so delighted. I was able to take my two dogs with me too. It’s hard to find a place that allows fur people. If I have a reason to go back to Smallwood, I would definitely book it again. Thanks, Kevin.

Our stay at this winter home was absolutely magical! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with breathtaking snowy views and a warm, inviting atmosphere inside. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The fireplace made for the perfect cozy nights, and the large windows offered stunning views of the winter landscape. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The location was ideal, with easy access to winter activities and indoor waterpark. The hosts were friendly, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed.If you’re looking for a peaceful and charming winter escape, this rental is perfect. We can’t wait to come back next year!Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy and unforgettable winter getaway.

Our Wonderful Christmas Stay

For the last several years, Kevin’s home has been a place where my family celebrates Christmas and this year was just as special as the others. It’s so nice to have a home away from home to celebrate. It’s spacious, clean, has a well stocked kitchen, plenty of bedrooms for my extended family, and has plenty of things to do for the little kids. We also traveled with our little dog, and the well lit exterior made taking the dog out at night very easy. Kevin is also very responsive to my questions. The conveniences of the space have families in mind and are well thought out. Thanks again Kevin!

Best way to spend a birthday weekend

The property was perfect and as described. What an amazing experience it was for our Siberian husky Luna. Looking at or being near, the lake is very cathartic, and all that we had hoped for. Inside there’s not a single amenity missing or anything you could possibly need. The host was easy to communicate with very kind and open. Very easy to work with Kevin and I will be in touch with him soon to book my next vacation!!

This day was very nice. The house was perect for a family of 6 The area was beautiful. Plenty of space to sit together or spread out. Inside or outside. Very quiet location. Everything was clean and well stocked. The only thing to take note of is there is only air conditioning in one bedroom. The rest of the house does not have AC and we had to look for fans. The whole house exhaust fan worked okay to take the edge off. You also need to cross a very small country road to get to the lake. It is not attached to the actual property. Not much room for sitting there as a group. We had a wonderful day in spite of that. Thanks so much! We would return

New years stay

I stayed here with my family of 4 and another family of 4. Our group included a toddler and three 8 year olds. It was the perfect place for our stay. The house is on a quiet street looking over a pond. It was comfy and clean and cozy. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. And whenever I had a question, Kevin was highly responsive and helpful. Checking in and out was easy, and we would easily come back during any season.

Best stay ever!

OMG! This house was exceptional. Everything anyone could want and more. The lake is literally across the street and the view from the deck is just beautiful. It rained one day and we spent the afternoon in the basement playing pool and foosball. Rode to Woodstock and did a little shop browsing and had dinner at one of the local restaurants. Walked along the wooded path in back of the house. So peaceful. And deer came into the yard on the morning we were going to leave! They also passed by on the road every day while we watched from the kitchen table. Oh! Almost forgot. The beds are soooooo comfortable. Slept like a baby. We are already making plans to come back!

Beautiful Lake House Getaway

We had such a wonderful stay at Kevin's Bethel Lake House. The location is perfect. So quiet and peaceful. Just far enough to getaway from the busy city but close enough that it's such an easy drive. The house was everything we imagined and more. On the days getting caught in the rain there is plenty to do in the game room/ basement but the real gem is the lake across the road. Seeing all the deer was so much fun. Glad we opted to stay here rather than the busier area at White Lake, although it's close enough to enjoy the great restaurants over there. The only regret is not booking more days. Kevin was a great host and was easy to contact for any questions we had and for when I stupidly left the car lights on when loading and our battery died. Be forewarned cell service can be very shoddy in the house but we enjoyed being disconnected for the few days we were there. Looking forward to staying there again.

Family get together

The family group from the north met with the family group from the south there at the house and had a lovely stay together. The lower level of the house was perfect for the teenagers. We all enjoyed the homemade ice cream shop in town. And although some of us we're way too young to know what Woodstock was, they still enjoyed the visit there.
