A friend and I spent about a week in this home at the end of August, and it was perfect. Really nice home that is nicely maintained. Very clean, and all the spaces seem to have been recently updated, which was important to me. The whole home was very comfortable, especially the beds. We didn't do any cooking, but if we had, we would have had everything we needed. The kitchen was spacious and well stocked with supplies, better than many rental properties I've seen. Guests should note that there is no bathroom on the first floor, so you have to go up or down to use a bathroom. Not necessarily a problem, but helpful to know if someone has mobility challenges. Danielle is a great host. Communication was fantastic. All instructions were very clear, and the guest guide was so helpful for exploring the area and trying out local restaurants (Brenda's Pizzeria was THE BEST!). Only downside was that the home is on a shallow end of the lake and the water level was very low when we were there, so water access wasn't as easy as I might have preferred. However the place where I rented my kayak for the week allowed me to launch from their location, which wasn't too far away, so problem solved. Overall, a really terrific house for a week on the lake, and i wouldn't hesitate to rent here again!

This was our first stay at Wisps End and I cannot say enough good things about the property and owners. My family and I felt instantly at ease and had all the comforts of home during our stay. The owner was highly responsive and set clear expectations and guidelines, which was greatly appreciated. The house was centrally located and only about 3 minutes from most of the activities we planned. Highly recommend (unless it’s during a time we want to be there 😉)

The place was in amazing condition and just as advertised. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The location was also amazing to enjoy the lake and also a short walk to the base of Wisp to enjoy the 4th of July fireworks. We would definitely stay again!

We loved our stay at Wisps End! The location was perfect! It was quiet with very little boat traffic so our daughter and her friends paddleboarded for hours on end all weekend. It was very easy to get in and out of the lake from the back yard. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the views from the deck as very few houses down there have such a direct unobstructed view of the lake. The inside of the house is in pristine condition and the furnishings are newer and comfortable. Including the very comfortable beds. Everyone had plenty of space to spread out but the kitchen was the perfect place to come together for meals to talk and laugh. We can't wait to come visit again!
