PISTAKEE LAKE - CHAIN O' LAKES - LAKE FRONT HOUSE

DoriRating, 5 stars10 months ago

We are repeat guests & hope to continue this tradition. We love Gary's place and now with a remodeled kitchen & bathroom - even better. This is a home feel house - like your friends own it & allow you to stay there (its not a hotel) and this is why we love it. We are thankful for them & respect their home. We cook most of the meals while we are there and love the layout and amenities of the kitchen. The kitchen, living room and back yard make for wonderful gathering spaces and the bedrooms make for great retreats away from everyone. The location on the lake is perfect for us - it allows us access out to the busy of the chain but its not right in front of us. We relax off the dock, fish off the dock and have dogs that love being able to walk into the lake. We bring a boat so being able to dock at the house is perfect for us as well. Very much recommend Gary's place for much needed getaway in comfort and serenity.

A spacious deck is shown furnished with comfortable seating, inviting a relaxing outdoor experience. The view of Pistakee Lake is visible in the background, framed by trees and sky. A gray storage box and a welcome mat are also present on the wooden floor.

LarryRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Very great get away I’m a fisherman and caught some really big fish. Water was clean lots to do on the chain of lakes. Only 9 mins from McDonald’s and Walmart in case anyone needs last minute stuff. Chris and Shannon were very knowledgeable of the area. Great place for peace. Sunset is on bedroom window side. (Loved to see this as I was just getting up) neighbors were friendly. Love the fact we had water toys like paddle boat kayaks and paddle board for use even though I didn’t use them I was fishing my 3 days there. There’s a dock and water at dock is about 2’-3’. Would highly recommended them. Overall it was a great stay and will be coming back again. To all who is looking at this you will love this environment. I consider this place a happy place getaway. Caught cat fish, drum,bass,,walleye Maybe rent a boat and explore the chain of lakes next time. Thank you Shannon and Chris for the great experience

All Season Sunset Cottage on Pistakee Lake

ReneeRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Beautiful waterfront property and cozy cottage. The house is minutes from the train station so you can plan a trip to the city without the traffic. The lake is full of pelicans, ducks and geese and I never tired of watching them. The driveway is an absolute adventure! We took turns riding in the back and front of our rental mini van so we could all experience the incline. You’ll be fine-just do it-it’s fun! The neighborhood and surrounding areas are beautiful and there’s plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. There is limited cabinet and refrigerator space so don’t over buy groceries like we did and there’s no ice. Bring trays or buy a bag if you need this. The fire pit was used and we got firewood at Home-depot along with s’mores sticks. The house is stocked with everything needed and we had an amazing time and made unforgettable memories and were comfortable and surrounded by beautiful scenery.
