We had a wonderful stay. The house guide booklet was helpful and the house fit our family well. Location of house: It was excellent having easy access to shops, park and slopes. Interior of house: The basement bedroom was very warm. The base heat was a little much. There is one light "push" dimmer switch to the kitchen which is in need of replacement. It will not always turn on. Overall, the stay was excellent.

Thanks, Randal!  So happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay.  I will have a maintenance tech take a look at the dimmer switch.  We do hope to see you again soon!

Thoroughly enjoyed staying at Casa Montes! Only a couple of issues worth mentioning. We stayed for a week around Christmas, and were unable to watch all of the football games. Although the house had digital cable, it did not have access to the NFL network, which seemed odd for such a nice place! We ordered a live Christmas tree for the home, which wasn't there when we arrived. However, when we informed the rental office, someone was out within the hour to set up the tree. The fire place was incredibly temperamental. It kept shutting off and not turning back on. Maintenance came out to check on it, but almost immediately after they left it turned off again. As it was the day before Christmas we just decided to deal with it. These issues may seem small, and thats because they are! For the overwhelming majority of the stay, everything was perfect! The house was spacious, clean, and gorgeous! The view of the lake from the main living area was fantastic! The pool table in the basement was fun! The hot tub was large enough for 8 people to comfortably soak on Christmas Eve! The yard was sloped, which was nice for sledding! (Although a bit dangerous!) The dining table was large enough for four families with kids to all sit together and enjoy a holiday meal!

Thank you so much for your review, Stephan!  I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Casa Montes!  The fireplace is temperature based so when it hits a certain temperature it does turn off.  We really appreciate you staying with us and hope that you come see us again soon!

Casa Montes was just as described by the owners as well as the previous tenants. Absolutely beautiful cabin with all the amenities of home! Kids loved the pool table and hot tub. The location to the marina was incredibly convenient. We rented a pontoon boat for Sunday and were able to dock at your slip without trouble. My brother and his family drove his RV in from Indiana and stored it at Bumblebee RV park for the weekend which was also convenient for us and not too far. Overall, we were very pleased and in all likelihood will be back soon. Thanks for an amazing family retreat!

The house was amazing. We had a crew of adults and kids and we all fit perfectly. Loved the yard the walking distance to the coffee shop/lake. We are looking forward to using casa montes as our place of get together next year. Thanks for having us!

Great break from the city

06/02/2016 Check In: We had a lovely weekend and enjoyed the beautiful Casa Montes. The weather was quite rainy during our stay, so we didn’t get to do much on the lake, but one can rent kayaks from a shop directly below the house. There is also a cute coffee shop, a sandwich shop, and a pizzeria next to the kayak rentals. Our toddler son loved seeing foxes, otter, chipmunks, deer and birds, as well as exploring the porch and large yard. I personally appreciated being able to watch the French Open finals on Sunday morning and being able to get some work done (the wifi is reliable and fast). The house itself has everything you would need in terms of pots, pans, towels, linens and general supplies. The lower level would be perfect for teenagers - it has its own bedroom and entertainment area with pool, chess, and board games, as well as direct access to the lower deck with a grill. The owner as well as the property management company were very responsive. There is a good supermarket within a very short drive--if you love jam, make sure to try the black raspberry variety made locally and sold throughout the region. Beyond the immediate area, there are a few state parks with wonderful hikes and waterfalls.
