Weekend Getaway
Jan was a pleasure to work with, great communication! Wonderful home, beautiful location, everything we hoped it would be and more! Weather didn’t cooperate so we didn’t get to use the outdoor space much, hope to make it back and enjoy the deck/view/firepit/grill etc more next time. If you’re in the neighborhood I highly recommend you grab this gem, you won’t regret it!

Peaceful property!
The property owner is very good about staying in touch! The house was cozy with a beautiful lake view, comfortable master bed, and everything we needed. The location was quiet, but also close to everything in town. We would definitely stay there again!

About the host

Hosted by JAN DARRAH

Host profile image
We are a semi-retired, middle-aged local couple who has decided to share our beloved lake cottage when we are not using it. We have four children, seven grandchildren, and two Morkies. We love our family, the lake life, traveling, most outdoor activities, cooking, entertaining, and Sports, particularly KSU Football!!!

Why they chose this property

My husband grew up at the lake, and I spent weekends on the lake with my family growing up, so it holds special memories for both of us. We enjoy spending time here relaxing, but decided to share our home with others when we are not using it. We have rented vacation homes for years and have thoroughly enjoyed them, so decided to try our hand at hosting. We have owned a business in Manhattan for many years, as well as rental properies, so have a maintenance crew and know how to provide good customer service. We traded a prior lake property that we have rented for this one, so are really "not so new" at renting (35 years in the real estate business) but new at vacation home renting.

What makes this property unique

From the Covered front porch when you first walk up the steps, to the cottagey, homey feeling inside with its wood ceilings, brick fireplace, woodburning stove, comfortable furniture and beds, to the breathtaking views of the lake, large shade trees in the large yard full of perrennials, and private deck, I hope you can feel the love this special home has to offer. The decorations, books, curios, and nooks and crannies are provided to take you back to a simpler time and evoke memories of the past, while you enjoy the wonderfully upscale appliances and amenities, not to mention the breathtaking views...
