Our favorite spot in the house is the enclosed porch with walls of windows that surround the home on three sides to ensure the weather never rains out your lakeside adventure. The spacious main living area has a large screen Smart TV, lots of comfortable seating and a river stone fireplace original to the charming 1920’s home.

Beautiful house and property. Clean, well-maintained house with plenty of privacy and space for our multiple-family reunion to vacation in. Carl was very responsive and helpful -- thank you! We enjoyed the kayaks, hearing the loons at night, swimming in the lake. The kitchen was well stocked. Great experience!

Pack your bag, that’s all you need, the hosts have thought of everything, they were wonderful to work with when planning our trip. Upon arrival we were greeted with a large, clean, beautiful home. We vacationed with our three sons and their families and there was plenty of room. Loved the porch! The kitchen is so well stocked, the kids even baked! The downstairs with the ping pong and foosball tables were great, lots of room for all kinds of games, tv etc. Large yard, lots of “toys” to use, kayaks, canoe, paddle boat, different size life jackets and floats. The she shed is so adorable, we used it as a quiet space for reading lol. I highly recommend sunfish cove, you will love it!

We had a wonderful vacation with our adult children and their families. The house was a dream for us. The big wrap around porch was a perfect place to eat, gather, play games and store our coolers etc. The sleeping arrangements were great.. and the she shed was a nice getaway. The waterfront was lovely and perfect for our boats and for the kids(ages 5-12) to jump off.

We had a great time on the water with the Kayaks. We were there during a heat wave and the water provided relief. There is no air conditioning so we did our best with fans. The house had so many sitting areas and tables that worked great with our family for games and socializing. Carl and Jill were great hosts.

We loved the house and the big wrap around enclosed porches make it spacious! The lake is quiet and beautiful, the property is nicely private for a lake front home. The house clearly dates way back, but necessary updates and upgrades have been done to make it comfortable and much more of a home than a camp. Hope to stay again!

Such a charming home! It was the perfect place for our family of 5 plus two grandparents. Everything was clean when we arrived and the kitchen was well equipped. We especially liked the front porch. And the lake is beautiful! We really enjoyed swimming and sunning on the dock.
