Had an issue this year with the right boat slip where it previously had a lift. On the right side it had a piece of metal that did significant damage to the boat, scratching and gouging the side. High water at the beginning of the week did not help and probably contributed to the problem.Strongly suggest removing the metal from the side of the dock and block off immediately.

Family Thanksgiving

The house was very clean. Linens were in great shape! Towels were amazing. We loved the basket of blankets/throws. The small pool table was a huge hit! Everyone played at some point of our visit. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes, cookware, etc. We wished the weather had been warmer so we could have used the outdoor space. Lake view was beautiful & relaxing. We would rent again if we are meeting in Southern Illinois. Our group came from NW Indiana, Chicago and Atlanta.

Had a great stay

We’ve stayed at a variety of houses along Lake of Egypt over the years and this was easily one of our favorite stays. The house was the perfect size for our family of 5. Nicely remodeled and very clean. Will definitely stay again. Only complaint is they need to upgrade the grill. They did such a nice job with the house, but clearly skimmed on the cheap charcoal grill, which was filthy.

Family Gathering

Welcoming Host, clean home right on Lake Egypt on a peaceful cove. Would stay again for sure and had 2 Kayaks with paddles available but remember to bring your own life jackets. Suggest for new kayakers maybe rent wider kayak for more stable experience. Dock has 2 covered jet skis that are not part of rental and suggest having one of those dock spaces open to launch kayaks. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you need. Had plenty of choices of chairs for outside seating and waited until last day to eat breakfast on deck and wished had tried that earlier as relaxing space shaded with a tree most of the day.

This was the third time we stayed here. The accommodations are perfect for us. The house is immaculate, tastefully decorated, and is furnished with comfortable beds. The deck and dock make it a fun place for us to hang out.

Family 4th

Our family was impressed with the indoor accommodations. We felt it to be very clean and probably the best equipped kitchen of any rental we have ever stayed. Feeding all of us was never and issue we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again. A suggested improvement would be the stairs/path to get the dock are in need of an update, Overall a great stay, thank you.

We used the recommended boat rental and it was a blast! Everything was there that you would need from linens,towel's and basic essentials! Kitchen was fully stocked …. Just bring you own food! Only complaint was upper and lower deck could use a good cleaning 😁

This location was so much better than we expected from the listing! The view of the lake was stunning, the house looked like a new Reno, and they even supplied the things you often forget to bring along. We truly loved our stay, and will likely do it again!
