Great family time at Spirit of Curlew Lake

We had a great time at Sharlene’s place. The private bay was a big hit! It was a short hike down a little trail which opened up to a quiet bay. We swam and fished there every day. Sharlene provided an aluminum boat and we brought a large inflatable boat. The deep fire pit was also a big plus, with s’mores all around. We played outdoor games in the volleyball area. The kids also played on the swing set on the property. Sharlene always answered my texts immediately and was very helpful. We would definitely recommend this for a family gathering. We had 6 adults, 4 kids and a dog.

Wonderful vacation at Curlew Lake

Sharlene's property has a beautiful view of Curlew Lake. It is very spacious and accommodated our large group with areas for kids, teens, and adults. I was impressed by the many extras provided: spices, condiments, a large variety of cooking pans and serving dishes, games for inside and out, plenty of paper towels and toilet paper. We had a wonderful time with our family and will return to this house if possible in the future.

Great location, interesting house

The location of the house and views were great. The house had lots of plants which left seeds all over the couches and floor which we had to constantly brush off. Another reason why we wouldn’t give this 5 stars is the internet was very slow. My husband tried to do some work remotely and could not use zoom. The communication was great but the cleanliness of the house and lack of internet made it not ideal.

Good ice fishing! Love the heated tile! 6 guys, all over 50 had a great stay! Having the driveway plowed and sanded was super nice for access! Thank you… took us a while to figure out light switches (might install small labels?). Of course we are all over 50! 😂 awesome place!

Great winter getaway!

My family and I rented this house for new years weekend. Great communication with the property owner, and was allowed to check in a few hours early! The view of the lake is beautiful! Close to town and restaurants, about a 10 minute drive. The house is huge, with plenty of sleeping space and restrooms. Overall, a great experience!

So Accomodating!

We were unable to make our trip due to a change in family plans last minute, however our experiene leading up to the stay is worth the review! We were able to drive by & check it out a few weeks prior. The premises are wonderful! Circle deiveway, outdoor activities, INCREDIBLE view of the Lake, everything needed to accomodate for a large family gathering (which we will be returning for in Spring)! The owner had the driveway plowed & home ready for our arrival. So understanding with our situation & was prompt to respond to all of my questions. We can't wait till next year where we can share our experience of actually staying!!

This was the most amazing house, property, and view! It was better than we could have hoped for!

We stayed here as a staff retreat with spouses for 3 nights. The owner was fantastic to communicate with. The property and house were more beautiful than the pictures can explain. The area was incredibly quiet and also amazing! All in all, every aspect of our stay was better than we could have hoped for! I would highly recommend this VRBO to anyone considering staying and I will be using it again!

Beautiful views, spacious house

My family and I stayed at Sharlene’s place for a family reunion/memorial for my grandfather who owned a ranch for 40 years in the nearby town of Malo. The location of the house was perfect for our visit and to relive some of our memories of the area. We really enjoyed the property, it has beautiful views, especially from any of the three terraces on the house that face the lake. Sharlene made sure we knew about all of the activities that were available to us and always responded to our questions in a timely manner. I don’t know if we’ll ever come back to the area but everyone in our group agreed that we would stay at this house again.

family reunion

Our visit to Curlew lake worked out just right. We had 5 adults and 4 children (8-12). Mainly just slept in the house as my sister owns a house just 2 miles away. We did enjoy very much the kayaks that were on the trailer because we were able to transport them to my sister's beach. Did find path to lake from house but was rather steep in places. Thanks to previous review we did stock up on water and with the multiple refrigerators could keep it cold. Only negative thing I can say about house was there was just a little too much clutter for my taste.

We had so much fun at this house!

What a stunning location! Plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have their own space. We played horseshoes, badminton, pingpong, went for a lovely walk along the trestle across the lake. Deer walk through the yard throughout the day. What a great place to spend time with a fun-loving family.
