Gorgeous lakefront property - view from the back deck absolutely stunning. Inside was also gorgeous and atmospheric. All furniture was first class, bed in master bedroom was probably the most comfortable I've ever slept on, and all the other furniture was extremely comfortable as well. A highlight for us was the firepit, which we used nightly.

Beautiful lake house. Spent one week with my family here. Was able to rent a boat for two days and enjoy the lake. Used the dock quite a bit for just swimming and jumping off of. Plenty of room inside for my family. Kitchen was very well stocked. Would definitely stay here again.

We highly recommend Linger Longer and plan to be back. The home was very cozy, tidy, well appointed (plenty of towels!) and relaxing. It has a lovely perch and view of Lake Glenville with easy gradual access to the lake. Sits in a cove with little boat traffic and neighbors (and their docks) are not too close. All in all a lovely and peaceful spot, and we so appreciated our time there. We plan to be back!
