Owner Supplied Testimonials
House was perfect for everyone in our extended family from my 5 year old niece to my 70 year old father. We played foosball and had a pool tournament. The house was very clean. So many rooms and tv's that you could still have some privacy and watch your favorite show. Hot tub was a nice treat in the am and pm. Matresses were very comfy and brand new. Kids loved feeding the deer apples and watching the turkeys run by. Kids also loved the upstairs through the hidden spiral staircase. They called it their secret room. We can't wait to go back again next christmas break.

We rang in the New Year year at this wonderful home in Lake Harmony Estates.
It was great having so much space - 5 families of 4, and we never felt like we were on top of each other. It really helped to have so many rooms. The kids loved hanging out up the spiral staircase, which gave the adults some peace and quiet downstairs.
Both the kids and adults enjoyed the foosball and pool tables and even in the freezing cold the hot tub was great fun.
Both sets of stairs had doors to close which really helped with the toddlers in the house.
With so many people, it was really great to have 2 full size refrigerators.
We spent one afternoon down the road at Split Rock. In the summer time, the lake is just down the road.
Barry, the owner, is amazingly responsive.
We all hope to return.

We had an awesome time. The house is very spacious and almost everything is brand new. New beds pillows etc..very clean. The set up is great. You can play pool in one room and watch tv in another and not hear any noise. We had alot of fun with the foosball table and pool table. The owner Barry is very accomodating and a pleasure to rent from. I will definitely rent from Barry again.

So Convenient!
Our large group of 15 really enjoyed Super Bowl Weekend at this home. Everything is new so that makes the stay so much more comfortable. There are 2 full size refrigerators in the kitchen which makes cooking & storing food easier. There is also a mini kitchen upstairs which allowed for coffee in the morning in bed. TV"s in most rooms allowed us to spread out when we wanted. Pool table got lots of use. Loved the hot tub. Great Communication with Barry & Kari. Already checking for next year!

Amazing House!
House is much nicer than the description - virtually everything is brand new and top of the line. Barry, the owner, could not have been more accommodating and responsive to all our questions. This house and the area are great for family vacations. We have found a vacation place to return to again and again.

Great House - Better than what the picture shows
My friends and I had a great stay over the weekend. The house was spacious for all 15 of us to be in one room to hang out, at the same time the house was large enough where people can go to a more quiet spot to just relax on their own as well. The pool table and foosball table were great, with the bluetooth speakers was a nice touch to enjoy great music while playing some games. The hot tub was nice as well! The owner was readily available if anything as needed and was kind and great in accommodating us.

Great house for the weekend
Everything about the place was great. 16 adults had plenty of room to eat, sleep, watch tv, play pool, etc. The dining area is very spatious and was where we spent a majority of our time together. Barry was timely with all of his emails and very thorough and detailed with all of his instructions. Plenty of room to park multiple cars. Everything in the house seemed completely new. Everyone that stayed enjoyed their weekend at this great house.

Great for families with young children!
We had the best family re-union, thanks to a spacious, comfortable, clean and safe house. Our group had 12 adults and 6 children (4 under 2 years). Not only are the two separate second floor areas private, but they can be closed off by doors so little ones aren't tempted by the stairs. Two large closets actually have room to put a pack 'n play in for sleeping babies. And there's no balconies or high decks to worry about! The kitchen was spacious with everything you need and the two refrigerators a big bonus. The big dining table was perfect for meals and games at night. Two long picnic tables and additional seating out back were great for all our barbecues. The hot tub and game rooms were wonderful so we hardly left the property, except to go to the lake and take walks to see the deer and turkeys in the neighborhood. Very ample paved parking was appreciated. Barry was great to work with. He answered my questions very promptly. Thanks to Barry we had a fun and carefree re-union! I would definitely recommend this house to friends.

Dance Team
We had about 20 people and there was plenty of room, especially for a crowd of people who had never stayed together before. (dance team event) Very neat and clean wit a nice location and lots of updated areas. Outside picnic table and hot tub area was great. I also left my fitbit behind and didn't figure it out for about 3 weeks. I contacted the owner, and they did have it and shipped it back to me. I thought that was going above and beyond and was really impressed. Great people to rent from.

Spacious, comfortable house
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We were 15 adults and 3 children and the house setup was perfect for all the families to have their own space. The house was clean and all the appliances were top of the line. There was plenty of entertainment in the house with pool and Foosball tables and plenty of TVs and a grill, and plenty to do in the neighbirhood, including the private beach our kids loved. We would definitely recommend to our friends and would love to come back.

mazing home!!!
This house was absolutely amazing. It was not only updated and charming but very, very clean and well kept. Barry was so easy to work with and very quick to respond to all correspondence. We enjoyed our trip so much we have already booked with him again.

Beautiful home, great landlord
Rented the place for a college reunion. It's absolutely monstrous, very easy to get lost in there! House had more than enough room for 18 people to spread out comfortably. Amenities like hot tub, pool table, and big tv's made sure everyone was occupied. The beach is a 10 minute walk away which was great. The side yard was a great place to hang out in the afternoon and throw a football. Wonderful, wonderful property. Barry is a very amenable guy too! Very accommodating.

Best Lake Vacation - wholesome family fun!
Excellent getaway !!! Just what we needed and everything we wanted!!! The house is fabulous - has all the comforts of home, and more ! So very extremely spacious, but brought us all together for meals at the large dining table, many games of pool and foosball, BBQ, hot tub, board games, movies, walks to the lake....Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, televisions, and sitting areas inside and out. Lots of deer sightings and beautiful, peaceful surroundings. Prime location for lake activities - beach, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding - we enjoyed them all!
Barry and Kari were a pleasure to deal with ... All transactions went smoothly and ALL questions were answered promptly. Can't wait to bring my family back again for ski season !!! Thanks for some great memories !!!

A Christmas to Remember!!
5 of 5
We rented this home for our Destination Christmas 2016 and we could not have been happier. There were 10 adults and 7 kids (with a few extra visitors on the holidays) and this house had plenty of room for everyone and ample areas / games (pool, Foosball, karaoke, and board games) for the kids to play. Kids were 10 and under so even with high chairs and pack n plays, we were able to fit very comfortably. We loved the kitchen / dining area as we were all able to fit around the tables and enjoy our time together (and the two refrigerators was a major plus for such a large group). We have been renting houses all over the US and this was by far the best experience we have had yet. I attribute a great deal of this to Barry and his ownership and responsiveness during the process. He answered questions, provided a ton of information about the area and things to do, and was very appreciate to have us as renters as well. It was a great time and would definitely do it again!

The BEST experience, as always.
5 of 5
I've stayed at several of Barry's properties over the last few years, and it is always the absolute best. He is constantly upgrading his properties, and this one was no exception. The games, the tvs, pool table, foosball table, hot tub and ample seating and common areas make for this to be the perfect destination for large groups with varied interests. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the second fridge was so helpful to have for overflow! The property is an easy walk down to the lake, but feels private and secluded.
Outside of the property itself, I can't say enough positive things about Barry. He is responsive, kind, and makes you truly feel like you're staying at a family member's home in their absence. I will absolutely seek opportunities to stay at Barry's properties in the future, and I can't encourage anyone enough to make the trip to Lake Harmony for any occasion. I'd give 10 stars if I could!

Best Mountain House!
5 of 5
We rented this home for my 30th birthday and it was a great home. There was 18 of us and we felt that there was plenty of room for everyone. The home has a great game selection (pool, Foosball, karaoke, and board games). We enjoyed the hot tub and using the nice grill as well. We saw a lot of deer from the back patio! All of the TVs had working remotes and were easy to find. There was a lot of dishes, cooking utensils, and silverware to use; we washed everything in the dishwasher which worked great. It was also nice having a washer and dryer. We were also able to bring our dog, which was a plus. We will definitely be renting this home again!

GREAT PROPERTY WITH ROOM FOR ALL AND A GREAT LOCATION!!!
We were very pleased with our stay. The house is very well kept and had plenty of room for our large family. The property owner Barry was very accommodating and went out of his way to make sure we had every thing we needed. The home is situated perfectly between both ski hills and the water park which made it super convenient. We will definitely be booking the home again next year.
