We met our best friends at this property, altogether we had 4 adults and 8 kids (ages 5 - 13). The house has so many things for the kids to do... foosball, pool, xbox, Ping-Pong and board games. The house is huge and was perfect for our group. The bedrooms are spread out down 2 different hallways and the basement, so not everyone woke up the minute the first person in the house was awake. This made us a well-rested happy group. The dining room has 2 big tables, convenient for our group of 12. The kitchen was very well stocked with extra spices and things we forgot to bring (like sugar for our coffee). We used the flat griddle outside on the deck for our breakfast every morning. The deck was a great place to read book while looking at the pond fountain. The screened in porch was nice for sipping coffee and playing cards at the little table. The things to do on the property... I cant even name everything. We had gorgeous fall weather so we had campfires, the little boys caught frogs and lizards in the pond, lawn games and hot tubbing, we walked the mowed trails and a few kids even had rides from Steve and Betsy on the golf cart. The barn is up the hill a little bit. It has water, a bathroom and a fridge/freezer in the small kitchen area. Here we played LOTS of pickleball, had a birthday party and the kids rode scooters, skateboards, hoverboards and drove RC cars that we brought from home. The kids had so much to do that they fell into bed exhausted every night. As parents we enjoyed seeing them in nature and having a wonderful time playing together and hanging out. The owners live up the hill a bit and were so kind. I've rented a lot of VRBO's and have never met the homeowners before. Steve & Betsy were just the icing on the cake. They had fresh bread and local jelly waiting for us when we arrived (you may want to rent just for this alone) and were so attentive to us the entire time. They went above and beyond to connect with our kids and were so sweet. Seriously, just adopt us Steve & Betsy. We'll start the paperwork. Haha! Would we go back? Heck YES! We are already talking about when we can work that in. Book this place, I know you will love it! But it may not be available, because we may already be there.

The listing pictures don’t come close to all this property has to offer! Steve and Betsy have given great thought to every detail/need anyone could need. The house is not only gorgeous inside and out, but perfectly suited for all ages. Big and small kids loved the game room, ping pong and foosball, and checker tournaments. The kitchen provided the room for family conversation as mom (happily) cooked for the family, perfectly stocked with all the culinary needs. Our daughter's wedding was held on the pond dock. We were able to decorate as the happy couple desired. Grandpas Barn…OH.MY.GOODNESS!!!! We hosted the reception in the barn but could have easily been the wedding venue. Gorgeous inside and out, unique and traditional details at every turn. LOVED the washtub sinks in the kitchen and bathrooms! A beautiful outdoor swing and benches adorned the covered porch, fall decor at the double door entrance to the barn, details, details, details everywhere! We WILL be back for family gatherings in the coming years. Thank you, Betsy and Steve…kudos all the way around!

This home is so much more than we could have ever imagined. It has every possible thing that you could possibly need or want. It is beyond anyone's expectations. Steve and Betsy went above and beyond and were so very sweet. We can't wait to go back next year!!!

We enjoyed all the amenities that this home offers. Steve and Betsy are awesome hosts! All the kids were entertained, there was something for every age! We loved the lodge and will be going back!

We had fourteen people of various ages staying and had ample room at this spacious abode. We take a family vacation every year and this was by far the best set up we have stayed at. Pool table, ping pong, foosball, basketball, volleyball and indoor pickleball (Never heard of that until now and the kids absolutely loved it). The place was spotless with many decks and a screeened in porch with lots of seating. The large kitchen accommodated everyone and there are plenty of seats in the dining room. I would recommend this place to anyone, it is beautiful and just a few miles to two great lakes.

This property is amazing. Every detail is thought of and the owners are wonderful. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The lodge is decorated so nicely and has a great atmosphere to relax in. The kitchen is well stocked and has every utensil, pot, etc that you would need. It was a great week - and we hope to return in the future.

We were a group of 14 consisting of 3 families of friends gathering after a long COVID19 season. (“Kids” ranged from 14-23) Lodge Between the Lakes was perfect! The house was CLEAN, spacious, comfortable and provided so many indoor activities. The screened in porch was perfect for morning and evening conversation. The space in the dining room was great for eating and playing board games. The Blackstone was the best place to cook! The property included so many outdoor activities that one of our boys created an Olympic event for the “kids”, including a pickle ball tournament in the barn! In addition to the outdoor games, we enjoyed hiking and taking in the views around the property. The hosts Steve and Betsy have been intentional about everything the property has to offer. The house was stocked with all the essentials, including the much anticipated bread. “Judy’s Bread” did not disappoint! Thank you to Steve and Betsy for providing a beautiful place of respite, connection, and all out fun. It was amazing!

Our family had the BEST time at the Lodge Between the Lakes. Mr. Steve and Miss Betsy were the kindest, most gracious hosts. They have put so much thought and love into every detail of this beautiful place and it shows! The lodge was spacious, exceptionally clean, and inviting. There are so many fun things to do as well as quiet places to relax. We could not have asked for a more perfect getaway for our family and we cannot wait to return. :)

We ranged in ages from 3 months to 79 years old, and EVERYONE enjoyed their stay. Each family had opportunity to retreat to their own quiet place when needed, but we're able to all come together in the various common areas comfortably. The use of the wedding barn as a place for kids to run off steam in any weather puts this place over the top. Steve and Betsy are amazing hosts and have so much to offer on this property, we are thankful they have opened this opportunity for others to explore and enjoy. Hot tub was awesome, the kids loved the pond, field and playground. Horseshoes, volleyball, and disk golf available for the older folks...or just sit on the porch and enjoy the peace. Great place and a very affordable price for all that is offered!

Absolutely beautiful property! Steve and Betsy went above and beyond making sure our stay was absolutely perfect!! There were 2 loaves of fresh bread waiting on us along with some starter necessities upon arrival. Never a dull moment--plenty to do----game rooms, walks in the woods, pickleball court, hot tub, toys and games for the kids, playground, international space station tracker. I could go on forever! The place is also beautifully decorated and the beds are comfortable! Fully equipped kitchen and plenty of room for a large family! Do not hesitate--book today!! Very peaceful!

This home has everything you can imagine for convenience and accommodation. Beautiful property, tons of spots to gather and sit and chat and watch the beauty of nature. Owners so kind and easy to work with. No complaints.

It was a great place and Steve and Betsy were some of the best hosts I've ever had.

Loved the property and location. Owners were excellent. I enjoyed meeting them and visiting with them. Steve and Betsy are so personable and cares for our comfort. Will definitely pass along this place as an wonderful relaxing place to stay. House and property is amazing.

Words can not describe how we felt about the lodge between two lakes. We were truly blown on how beautiful the building and property is and it was not just the tons of activities and amenities but the small touches throughout. Everywhere you looked their was another small knick knack or a nod to the outdoors from hunting, fishing, to the wildlife a bound. We all agreed that this will defiantly become a yearly trip and we can not wait to go back. Thank you Steve for a wonderful place and we hope to be back soon!

Great experience for the whole family. I would recommend it for other families.

Would definitely stay here again. Spacious property, quiet, and peaceful. Plenty of activities to keep the whole family busy.

Pictures do not do this place justice. We were so excited to see all the outdoor activities available, the many places to sit and relax and the quiet seclusion. It does feel like a lodge with a beautiful main room and screened - in porch. Spacious and very comfortable with lots of attention to detail. There was plenty to keep the children busy. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed being able to sit together in the large dining room. The owners, Steve and Betsy, were very thoughtful and wanted to make sure we enjoyed our time there. We also took advantage of the swimming, boating and hiking in the area.

Grandparents, siblings, and children all gathered for our annual retreat. It’s a challenge to find the perfect house for toddlers, children, teens, young adults, and seniors, plus our doggos, but this place suited us so well. Activities for everyone, a very well equipped property, and extra cleaning process thanks to COVID-19 made our stay safe and comfortable even though we didn’t get farther than fishing at a nearby lake. A great kitchen and outdoor griddle plus a large dining room Allowed us to cook and eat all our meals together - all 18 of us! Thanks to Steve and Betsy for all their homey touches and amenities! We look forward to returning!!

In 25 years of youth ministry I can’t count the number of rental places and hotels I’ve stayed in with large groups. The Lodge Between the Lakes is far and away THE best place I’ve stayed! The Johnson’s have really gone out of their way to address every guest’s every need, and they have knocked it out of the park. Immaculately clean, superiorly furnished, conveniently located and supremely comfortable, I can’t wait to come back. Come check out this gem as soon as you can. You won’t regret it.

The photos for this property do not do it justice. It is well kept, gorgeous and family friendly. Steve is a great host and we thank him for keeping his rental in great shape.

The whole family loved the lodge! Wonderful accommodations and so many extras. The kids loved it. We never heard a single ‘I’m bored’ from any of them. Plenty of room for a large family to relax and enjoy. A+

Best place ever for a large family gathering, by far! Owners, Steve & Betsy, took care of all our needs & exceeded all our expectations. We all did not want to leave this beautiful, peaceful & fun property! I would recommend The Lodge to everyone, without hesitation! :) Especially for family reunions! A unique & fantastic property. A beautiful & serene setting. Thank You!!!

There were 10 of us and we absolutely loved this place! Our family ranged from 7 to 68 years old; tons to do for every age. We actually felt like the pictures didnt do justice to how beautiful this place really is! They have everything! I highly recommend this property for a fun family vacation. Thank you for such an amazing weekend! Sincerely, The Nicholas'
