Second stay - very satisfied`
This house is perfectly set for our family. Comfortable seating for all, large table in dining room, table on deck, very comfortable seating and tables on lower deck. We have rented a pontoon each time from the nearby marina and the kids have had a ball. Fishing, swimming, tubing, and even water skiing. Access to everything you need is only a few minutes away. Kitchen has everything you need to make meals and serve a small army. Good quality pots and pans, dishes, plenty of coffee mugs. Refrigerator on 1st level is very convenient for that "overflow" food, leftovers, drinks. Both have icemakers that work! Charcoal grill came in handy as well! The kayaks and paddle boards are a very nice perk also. This is an ideal vacation home!

How would you describe the overall comfort level of the rental?
Excellent. We are a family of eight with three small children and this place fits us well.
How was your water access and parking (both boat and car)? Perfect and easy!
What was your favorite amenity or feature of the house during your stay? We love the house. Mountain views are my favorite. The kids love the indoor pool and the beach area.
How would you describe the slope (gentle, easy, leg burner) to the water from the rental? Was it easy for the elderly, children, or pets to access? Perfect for everyone!!
Did the kitchen have the necessary tools and appliances for your cooking needs? Yes. We have added some little tools over the years, however, everything is there that is need.
Based on your experience, what is one item you would recommend future renters bring with them? Beach towels and extra pillow cases.

As always, we had a great week at Gunner's Lookout. This is the third year in a row we have stayed there. The house setup is perfect for our family, with three floors and bedroom accommodations on each level. There are beautiful lake views, wonderful amenities, and plenty of space. We look forward to returning in July 2025.

Family get-together
We had a wonderful stay at Gunner's Lookout. It's layout worked perfectly for our family, with each having bedrooms on separate floors. The children had a wonderful time fishing and swimming near the dock, kayaking / paddle boarding to the Rabbit Island, and exploring. It was so convenient for those items to be available, as well as such a close location to the Bernard's Landing Marina. We rented a Pontoon boat for a day, and the family had a blast. The close location of the Marina made it so easy to load up and load off, returning the boat, all very convenient. The availability of amenities such as the Community Pool, Tennis Courts, Beach, Indoor Pool, etc., was a nice touch. The only negatives, and they are minor, is the HVAC was a little hard to regulate for the 1st floor, as it tended to be a little cool while the main level was temperate. This may just be a balancing issue. Also, the towels could be a little bigger / nicer. Everything we needed was essentially there to make us feel at home, even condiments in the kitchen. The charcoal grill was handy, as we used it for a few meals. The spacious deck areas, and covered deck with plenty of comfortable furniture, was especially appreciated. We had our corn-hole boards set up, there was plenty of room for our whole family at the tables outside to gather and have meals. Views from these decks at all 3 levels are just spectacular. It is so relaxing. One night we just sat and marveled at the stars! This is a wonderful place for a get-away. It is peaceful, people were pleasant. One thing to be aware of, is trash needs to be taken to a community compactor. I walked it once, but most would drive there.
