As the most exclusive property in our collection, Goose Island Retreat dazzles with its array of high-end amenities and lush surroundings, making it the ultimate destination for those seeking both serenity and indulgence. Step inside to be greeted by a grand entry sitting area, where a gas fireplace casts a warm glow over plush seating, setting the tone for your stay. The gourmet kitchen, a chef’s dream, boasts top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, a custom-designed island with seating, and an elegant coffee bar, perfect for savoring your morning brew.

We stayed here over Memorial Day weekend and loved the home—it was perfect for hosting family, and the kitchen was beautiful. A few things could be better. The gate and front door codes were wrong, so we had to call the after-hours number and wait about 15 minutes. The rep was helpful. Inside, instructions were unclear for finding things like remotes and the hot tub key. The main floor AC wouldn’t drop below 80°. The hot tub was a bit dirty and cool but still relaxing. The outdoor TV by the hot tub didn’t work—likely dead batteries. The front fire pit was hard to ignite. The golf cart isn’t for guest use (our mistake), and no basketball was provided. Also, bring basics like seasonings, trash bags, foil, and toilet paper—wasn’t a problem for us, but good to know. Overall good stay just minor changes!

What an exceptional stay! The house is huge and meticulously crafted. My business partner and I sought refuge here to escape distractions and enhance our productivity, and the experience was utterly perfect. The dining room provided an ideal setting for work and meetings, while the spaciousness of the house allowed us to comfortably accommodate our entire team for the weekend. The basement game area offered a delightful respite, enabling us to engage in a variety of games provided by the home. While the recaptures were quite chilly, the fire pits provided a cozy ambiance for relaxation and tranquility amidst the serene surroundings. The massage chair was an absolute delight, offering unparalleled relaxation. The kitchen was exceptional, providing ample space for culinary creations without the clutter of multiple people. The espresso machine proved invaluable, facilitating our meetings and ensuring a smooth workflow. This cabin is fantastic and I hope yo come back in the near future.
