Girls' Weekend
Two college friends and our three girls ages 13-19 from Thursday to Sunday. The girls shared the bunk room and each mom had her own room. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Everything was clean and well cared for. We had a small issue with the dishwasher and someone was there very quickly to make sure it worked for us. Everything was as expected. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others. It was too cold to swim, but the house right on the lake would be absolutely perfect for a summer getaway too.

Clean, spacious home! Our kids spent lots of time on the private beach and we used the kayaks daily. It was great to have the park next door and an ice cream shop so close! We had such an enjoyable trip and are planning to return next summer!

Family Reunion
This was a good spot for a small family reunion. Lots of flexible sleeping spaces for all ages. The downstairs bathroom is very small, which made it challenging for some to use, but overall everything worked well.

Great for Extended Family
Our second year here and once again we had a wonderful time. Our family included two children under three and there was lots to do - sand toys, three kayaks, a lily pad to play on, a safe sandy beach and other places already mentioned in other reviews. There is an excellent disc golf course that my son enjoyed. The kitchen is well equipped with some basic spices. The owners are outstanding and unobtrusively checked in to see how we were doing. I left some items there and they went beyond "the call of duty" to make sure I got them back.

Weekend getaway
We had a wonderful weekend getaway in Fairmont! The house was great - both spacious and clean! Wonderful beach out the back door with 3 kayaks available for us to use. It was great to be so close to the public beach, 2 parks, the aquatic park and an ice cream shop. We all had a great time! Having such a nice place to stay really made our weekend special. Thank you!

Great Location!
This spot right on the beach is a perfect family getaway. The beach at the property is so close to being level with the yard so there’s no stairs down the bank. Really nice place that has a nice layout for families. This location is within walking distance of the public beach, kayak rentals, restaurants,etc. We had a great time.

Great Place!
The home was very clean with ample space, well stocked and beautiful views of the lake. We enjoyed the beach in front of the house and the kids also liked the park and playground on the south side of the lake home. The owners were at the property right next door for most of the weekend and doublechecked with us a couple of times to make sure we were having a good time which was very nice of them. The chain of lakes that the rental unit is on is really fun and we even had a pontoon delivered and picked up by Hall Lake Cabins and Boat Rentals. It was a really fun weekend for us, our adult kids and our grandkids!

Just what we were looking for
Clean, updated and roomy. This place was very well stocked. Loved the shaded trees and the sandy beach. The park adjacent to the property was a hit with kids aged 2-8. This property does not have the Up North feel but we knew that going in. We traded that for everything else and it delivered. Wonderful sand toys and kayaks available to use. We loved it!!! We may be back. 😋
