Summary: The property is beautiful and the house was perfect for our family stay. The house is spacious and well equipped, the grounds are well kept and the view is spectacular. We loved gazing out at the lake. There are plenty of things to do. The kids enjoyed fishing off the pier and kayaking in the lake. The Foosball table saw plenty of action as well. We truly enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to visiting again in the future.

Summary: We gauge our stay by would we come back. This lake house is absolutely beautiful and we would love to stay again. We had a marvelous trip! Thank you so much!!!

Summary: This house in Lake Wildwood was perfect for our visit to family in the same neighborhood. It was clean and very comfortable (both the beds and living room). The neighborhood is very quiet. We loved looking out over the lake, particularly in the morning. Lots of wildlife to watch as well. We were there over Christmas, which was fun because there were lots of Christmas lights to enjoy. Unfortunately, it rained every day of our trip, so we weren't able to enjoy all the amenities the house offered. One note, the driveway is VERY steep, which was a little disconcerting but it did not create any problems for us.

Summary: I have stayed here now two times and the owners were great to work with. LW is a great place to stay! Can't get any better than on the lake.

Summary: We had family members stay from ages 4-79. The home was clean, inviting and so many different activities for all of us to enjoy. We were in the water with all of the water toys, played shuffle board, ping pong, tether ball, and just truly enjoyed our time there with everything that was available and being with each other. It will be great memories for all of us and we hope to go again some day. Thank you for sharing your home!!

Summary: Clean and very well supplied house on beautiful Lake Wildwood. We had 7 adults and 3 children (ages 4, 2, 9 months) and were very comfortable. They had so many things to do for kids! So many outdoor toys, scooters, floaties, kayaks, noodles. My kids were endlessly entertained exploring everything. We had a lovely time kayaking across the lake each day to spend time at the beach. We found a new beach each day! We also had a ton of fun swimming off the dock. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Summary: It doesn't get any better than this if you're looking for a lakefront vacation rental.
Ed D. Jul 25, 2024 10:14:56 PM
Summary: We really like this property. Have stayed here many times. The hosts are very gracious, clear in their communications, and make sure there are a ton of toys to play with on the lake.

Summary: Hoping to come back to this little slice of paradise every summer as long as they'll let us! Conveniently near our favorite Yuba River spot & so delightful to come back for dinner watching the sunset over the lake, followed by peaceful kayaking at dusk. Then stargazing at night! House is super comfy & spacious. Hosts are kind & communicative. Also: fawns frolicking on the lawn!
Michele L. Nov 8, 2023 04:09:19 AM
Summary: The house was very clean, warm and welcoming. Even better in person. The Beds were comfortable, and kitchen was well stocked. The master bathroom shower was beautiful 10/10. The location and views can't be beat. We enjoyed our time seating next to the lake talking and laughing. We would book again!!!
