Here’s a polished 5-star review you could post for a VRBO rental on the water:---We had an amazing stay! The property was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and perfectly located right on the water. Highly recommend.
Nicely appointed cottage! The owners have utilized the space perfectly and the decor is nice. The large dock is a great place to relax. It was a great stay for our family.
This is our second time staying here and we absolutely love it. The communication with the owner is fantastic and the location is wonderful. It’s also one of the few properties that is affordable for a young family to come and stay and enjoy the area! Will definitely stay here again!

Enjoyed
We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was comfortable. The beds are way better than at a hotel. We managed to be there for the fall colors and it was beautiful. We are hoping to come back next year.
This house is well situated for fun on the Red Cedar River. Having 3 extra bedrooms for our family gathering helped everyone get a good night's sleep. It also provided some privacy for my daughter who is on chemo treatments for breast cancer. I highly recommend this rental.
I came to the area to visit with my grandpa for a quick weekend trip. The house was perfect. Clean, organized, had everything mapped out that you might ever need during your stay. Location was fantastic and the view of the lake right outside of the living room window was perfect. I actually wish we were staying longer. I will definitely be looking to book this location in the future. It was everything we needed.
My husband and I stayed at the cabin to be close to the rest of our family on Red Cedar . the house was well equipped however we only had coffee and breakfast there.The only recommendations we would suggest the lakeside bedroom have a shade and more hooks and shelves in the small bathroom . We would stay there again!
We were very happy with this rental! Host Jenifer was great to work with. Cottage was very clean, decorated so cute and stocked with anything you could need. The dock was great, relaxing, and our grandson enjoyed fishing off of it and also finding snails- off the side of the dock he could wade a little bit. Place has a pontoon and kayaks to rent, we brought our boat so didn't need to. Onsite washer and dryer was an added bonus.
Would give this place a 💯 and recommend to any one to rent it.
This was the nicest vrbo rental we have stayed in so far!

Perfect Stay, Wonderful Owners, Zero Issues
I loved this place. It was fully stocked and lovely. Wonderful in every way. It was my mother's 80th birthday celebration, and it was perfectly located for the festivities.
