Our family had a wonderful time on Sokokis Lake! The house is located on a peaceful cove, and you don't feel like you're right on top of the neighbors. The house really had everything we needed and was well laid out and organized. We brought some of our own water crafts but there was also a canoe, kayaks, and a paddleboard we could use, as well as life jackets for the kids (perfect for paddling out to get ice cream in the evenings). Our hosts went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed, and they were incredibly communicative. Having the hot tub overlooking the lake was pretty spectacular!

We had a lovely week at Camp Go-ahead :) It was a bit rainy, but luckily it was mostly at night. We canoed, kayaked, padleboarded and fished off the dock. It was fun exploring the cove and the lake. The swimming was great, a nice sandy bottom and deep enough. We had a fire in the solo stove, and toasted marshmallows - the quintessential summer vacation! The hot tub was great, and the outdoor shower and foot wash was absolutely perfect. The road was busy and a bit noisy, as were some neighbors, so we didn’t get to enjoy the beautiful front porch, but we spent most of our time in the lake anyway. Thank you for sharing your home with our multigenerational family!

This year, my best friend and I rented this perfect cottage in Limerick for the third year in a row. It's truly beginning to feel like a home away from home. The location is private and literal steps from the water...a little cove that feels like our own giant swimming pool. Any and everything you need is provided by our amazing hosts. Furthermore, Claudia is wonderful to communicate with and easily accessible. The house was, once again, immaculate. Camp Go-Ahead is truly my happy place and I am already excited for next year. Thank you Claudia!!

We loved staying here! The hosts thought of everything we needed for a multi-generational family stay. We had fun with kayaks, canoe and paddle board, jumping off the dock, and fishing. Inside was spacious and comfortable. Even the weather was perfect!

This is our second time vacationing here and we loved it just as much as the first. It feels like home, largely because Claudia and Tim make everything so welcoming and warm. They're incredibly responsive and accommodating. The cottage itself is immaculate and well-stocked with everything you could need. The privacy and quiet that the cove affords can't be beat. It feels like your own swimming hole and lakefront oasis. We will keep coming back every summer for as long as we possibly can. It is truly a gem!

The house itself is exactly as pictured. It's also INCREDIBLY clean and had even more amenities than listed, including just about anything you'd want or need in kitchen and grill ware. Being on the cove made us feel like we were in our own paradise (certainly helped by no one being in one of the houses next to us). The lake itself is lovely and was fun to explore by kayak and canoe. The fire pit is a large Solo stove, which made building and maintaining a fire so easy. Claudia and Tim are the best hosts I've ever encountered — so sweet and super responsive. What more can I say? Loved the house and every minute of our time there.

Camp Go Ahead was the perfect rental property for my family and friends. The house was beautiful and had everything we could have needed. We had excellent weather, good fishing, and enjoyed the area around the house. We enjoyed all aspects of the lake, fishing, kayaking/canoeing, paddle boarding, floating in tubes, and even made friends with the family of ducks! Our family also took a trip a few minutes away to Libby & Son U Picks and had a very fun day of picking blueberries. We also enjoyed the local bar, the Peppermill Restaurant, and Dough Boy Donuts just a few minutes walk away.
Any problems or questions we had about the house were immediately addressed by the lovely owners of this home. Definitely will be renting this finely crafted home again!

We had a wonderful stay at this property! It was like vacationing at a 5-star resort. Beautifully maintained home with a gorgeous view of the lake/pond. We rented a Pontoon boat with easy access to the dock. The hot tub was a great treat along with the solo stove for smores. The four grandchildren loved swimming and tubing in the lake and also playing in the Bonus patio room. Everything you need in a kitchen was there - even a filtered water dispenser. All the beds were comfortable including the pull-out couch. Internet access was great as well. There is a restaurant, grocery store and doughnut shop within walking distance.
Can't wait to come back next year!

The property owners were very responsive and have a very clean and comfortable house. The beach right in the backyard was by far the highlight. The adults were able to hang out on the back patio underneath the deck while watching all of the kiddos swim 15 feet away. The first night, the kids were swimming until 10:30 pm!

The pictures didn’t do this place justice. My family and I had an amazing time at Tim and Claudia’s. Everything was very clean upon arrival, they even left a cute gift basket! Everything was well stocked throughout the house. Communication with Claudia was great, they even had a pump sent over when we needed to inflate a football. So sweet. We had the pleasure of meeting Tim on our way out too and he was wonderful. It was a scorcher the week we stayed, so not having AC was a little tough of the time but it cools down a lot most nights. Being in the cove is perfect. Sandy beach was a gradual walk in and my 4 year old son LOVED jumping off the dock over and over, as well as going in the canoe. Hot tub was amazing at night and the outdoor shower was so convenient. Hummingbirds and dragonfly’s everywhere, it was a magical little oasis for us. Thank you again!
