- "We loved our stay at the Gem of Jennie! The house was very well appointed - it was clear that the owners put a lot of thought into what guests would need. We were there to attend a family reunion in Darwin, so we didn't get to use all the great amenities offered, so this place is high on our list to rent again next time we're in the area." - "3 generation family vacation.

Amazing home, wonderfuk beach with an incredible sunset view, and owners who communicated quickly. Highly recommend." - "Perfect lake home to vacation at." - "This property was absolutely amazing. The host was very easy to communicate with and very helpful with questions. The property has everything we needed and was incredibly well-kept. My favorite part was the sand beach in the backyard. My friend and I spent most of our time sitting and gazing out over water. The master bedroom has a huge bay window that looks out onto the lake. It was a lovely weekend stay.

- "Loved it. Glad to know theres a place in town where we can go visit family and take our dog along. Place is spacious and family friendly. Property manager responds quickly." - "If you’re looking for a posh rental with all the bells and whistles, this house not for you. However, if you’re interested in a charming old house with lots of character, you’ll love this one. Perfect place for multiple guests. The floors are creaky and the bathrooms are tiny but manageable. Stairs are very steep and all the rooms but one room are upstairs so I would not recommend for small children, elderly, or those needing ADA accommodations."

- "It was a nice place and owners were very nice to work with!" - "Perfect place to spend the weekend relaxing, great cabin, beautiful lake, and lots of fun games and toys for the kids!" - "My friend wanted a low-key cabin getaway for her bachelorette party, and Stella's Nest was perfect! 8 people were able to comfortably stay in the main house, and the gazebo was a great spot to keep the coolers, pool floats, and extra drinks. Check-in couldn't have been easier, and Joe was very responsive with all questions. He even left a bottle of wine from the nearby winery, which was a very sweet gesture! The only thing that wasn't ideal was I didn't know he had a boat available for our use until a week before our stay, so we cancelled our rental for another boat because we thought it would be easier to rent Joe's (and it was - I have no pontooning experience, and he called me and walked me through how to use his BEAUTIFUL pontoon!) That said, I could have missed it in the listing, or it might not always be available. Overall, everyone was very impressed with how clean, comfortable, and spacious the cabin was, and we'll definitely keep this cabin in mind for future trips!"

We had a great weekend with our kids!" - "The cabin in wonderful remodeled, all beds were comfortable, we used the paddle boat and water board. nice to have available. there was a rainbow over the cabin on sat night, very fun. Thank you." - "We stayed over the weekend for a family wedding that was in town (very convenient location for the Reeds and Rushes venue). Awesome little cabin with everything you could need. Well stocked, awesome host, lots of extras like yard games, etc. We didn’t have time for activities on the lake since we had a wedding but we wouldn’t have been able to use it due to algee. A couple notes for parents with toddlers: bring a baby gate to block the bottom of the stairs. They are very steep and there was not one provided in the cabin. Also, all the doors are pocket doors that do not have handles- made it a bit difficult to shut the doors all the way for nap time and over night. Absolutely not deal breakers just would have been better prepared had we known this. Would definitely book this place again! "

- "Every year I get together with friends to play board games and ride on a lake. This was a great location to do it at. There was a few things that could use some slight upgrades but did not take away from the experience of the stay. Thank you again." - "Well supplied with towels, blankets & the kitchen." - "House was good size for 8 adults and 3 little kids. Kitchen well stocked with items, even plates and stuff for kids.Our stay started a little rocky because frigid temps earlier in the week froze the septic line, which caused the plumbing to back up.

- "A great house with plenty of room! We used the table in the dining room for board games. We enjoyed our stay quiet a bit and have no real complaints." - "Perfect place to host grooms dinner! What a great place!!" - "Our second son got married in Howard Lake and we decided to stay in a Vrbo instead of hotel rooms. We had a blast being all together in one space. So much to do here, we didn’t get a chance to use all of the many amenities sadly. We plan to stay again in the future to be able fully enjoy it all. The hosts thought of literally EVERYTHING! 💛. The communication with the hosts has been nothing short of fabulous and always had quick replies. All of the little things and details- they already have it covered. Extremely clean with beautiful views to the lake, a fenced in area for kids to safely play, grill, Blackstone griddle, stocked kitchen complete with spices, the whites towels and bedding I’ve ever seen, lots of games and toys for the littles. I could go on and on about all of what we loved about this stay."

- "It was the perfect place for our family to stay. Plenty of space to move around and the kids enjoyed playing in the big yard. I would like to point out a couple things, the refrigerator leaked water, we had someone slip and fall, the freezer did not get very cold (our popsicles never froze). The shower mats are slippery, we had a couple wipeouts. The front porch lights did not work. We all had a great time! If we are ever in the need in the future, we will look you up Thank you"

- "Very beautiful, nicely furnished and equipped house!! Appreciated the extra small refrigerator in the craft room. The property is even nicer than the pictures show!!! With that being said, maybe some pictures of the patio, yard, the outside of house and beautiful flower beds would be helpful to people looking to rent??? House was very well equipped for our gal cousins gathering of 8" - "We had the pleasure of staying at the retreat during a baseball tournament over the weekend. 5 stars all around. The property was great and the location was awesome! Great for a large group."
