Nice place, slightly limited kitchen
We were there for two nights and chose this place because it fit our needs -- was reasonably priced, slept two adults, and was nearby to Hawk Mountain. I didn't pay that much attention beforehand other than that. We were surprised to find a full-sized pool table and a somewhat limited kitchen. We shouldn't have been -- it's all there in the photos. And we had a great time playing pool and we were able to cook everything we needed in the kitchen. Be aware you will have one burner and no oven. The hosts were marvelous in their communication -- quick responses even bringing us additional salt but not intruding into the unit, just leaving it outside the door and texting us. Even giving us some recommendations after we left. The common outdoor space is also lovely.

Short but sweet stay
My husband and I had a great overnight stay at the Carriage House. Everything at the house was well thought out, from the food to the largest guest book I've ever come across. We really appreciated having the pool table and shuffleboard and the comfortable couch on a rainy Saturday night. Wish we could have stayed longer. We really look forward to returning to the property to fully take advantage of all that it has to offer. The lake, the hiking, and even the fire pit in the courtyard will all draw us back. Many thanks to Mark and Diane for their hospitality. Hope to be back again soon.

Relaxing
This property was immaculate. We enjoyed the shuffleboard and the pool table. The lake is lovely...I wish we had rented some kayaks. We stayed three night. We only went out to eat once. The kitchenette and gas grill provided everything we needed to cook meals. It was very quite and relaxing. The hosts, Mark and Diane, were extremely nice.

Terrific stay!
We had a wonderful stay at Mark and Dianne’s house. We kayaked at Leaser Lake which is a short distance from their house, did a beautiful hike, and had a restful nights sleep during our one night stay. The communication with Mark and Dianne was amazing! The view from their house was beautiful, landscaping around their property is gorgeous, and the house was very clean. Overall everything was terrific!

Amazing rental
My husband and I had a lovely time at this Carriage house. We enjoyed the house and property. We briefly met Mark the owner who was very kind. The house had so many amenities which made it definitely a home away from home. The scenery and weather were perfect, and we loved staying here. The area was so quiet, and we saw so many stars at night when outside. Thank you!

Great country setting.
The area was like a trip back in time. The entire community is so laid back, down to earth and friendly. Good quality country folk and my expectations were exceeded. The property was awesome, the hosts were awesome and if you can't find enough things to do then you aren't trying very hard. The room was very unique, comfortable and relaxing. We hope to return again soon because we have so much more to see, do and enjoy in the area.

Fantastic property and hosts!
We came for my husband’s 50th birthday, and we couldn’t have been happier than we were at this property. Everything was perfect, and we were sorry to have to leave! There were so many fun things to do, and games in our ‘apartment’, that we could have spent all of our time there happily. Mark and Diane were friendly, and checked on us just enough to ensure that all of our needs were met. We will definitely try to stay with them on our next trip!
