Great place to stay with a beautiful view right on the lake. Very clean. Plenty of space to accommodate a small group of people.

My family and I enjoyed the beautiful lakefront view from the back deck. We loved having access to the pedal boat and paddle boards. The kitchen was spacious which made cooking a breeze. There were two fridges so plenty of room for our food and drinks.

Raymond's Lakehouse was decorated with attention to details. The only thing missing was a dishwasher (we are spoiled Americans) and the top of stove ( electric coils) were hard to cook on. Other than that, we loved the place. We would recommend this to others!
