The house was DIVINE and Joan is an awesome host. She thought of everything and had clear, easily available directions for every element of the house.We arrived to two bags of gifts of everything from shampoo to sunburn care, as was as dish soap and laundry detergent (and a special extra treat). The house is modern and well decorated with amazing views to enjoy all day. There are so many nooks and crannies to sit in during the day and a tv per person at night: extravagant! As advertised, the downstairs area was perfect for our teen kids, where they played games to their hearts' content at night and their noise didn't bother us upstairs! The kitchen is well stocked with every plate and serving dish you need, extra spices and plastic bags. It could not be easier. The lake is pristine and is warm and inviting either for a day "at home" or after an outing. We enjoyed the kayaks on the lake several times but didn't even get to the larger parts which are available to explore. There are two fire pits, a wonderful hammock, comfy chairs and a dock. The lake is rocky bottomed, so water shoes with traction are advised. Once you get in you won't want to get out. Overall a wonderful experience we would easily consider repeating.

We loved every minute of our vacation at Joans beautiful home. The location, setting, and accommodations could not have been better for our family of 6 adults and 3 children.

We had a great time on the cape! The home was beautiful and nicely decorated. The arrival gifts were a nice touch and appreciated. The living area and kitchen were open to fit our large group. The best part of the house was the back yard! Plenty of seating and access to the lake was perfect for the kids. We also enjoyed both fire pits! I would recommend this home to others.

I was a little nervous to book originally, as there weren't any reviews yet. But the host was fantastic, very responsive and provided all the information needed (including pictures of amenities) so we decided to reserve the property. I'm SO GLAD we did. The house was immaculate, the owners go out of their way to ensure a wonderful experience for their guests - even leaving two full bags of brand new supplies/toiletries for the week. Best host experience I've ever had. And then the house. The lake view was GORGEOUS. We all fought over the hammock. S'mores on the fire pit. Coffee on the chairs outside. Kayaks to use. The property was just amazing, inside and out. It's also the perfect set up for teenagers traveling with their family. The downstairs was the teen area and the upstairs was for adults. We were able to come together when we wanted and have separate space as well. I'm more than happy to recommend Lakeside (although I'm a little worried it will be harder for me to book once this 'secret' is out!) :)

This place exceeded our expectations which were pretty high to begin with! The property is fantastic with great views of the lake and a backyard that had everything you could ask for. The ability to sit around the fire pit or go on a quick kayak trip were great. Little details like including shampoo, conditioner and body wash along with coffee and tea were great. Really liked walking into the house to relaxing music playing. It was a nice touch. Joan (host) was fantastic to deal with and answered all of questions quickly. I would highly recommend and will definitely come back here when coming to the Cape again!
