Maurice Richardson in The Observer summarised it "Dr. Priestley and his white-headed boys are at it again, cosy, fussy, consequential and full of interesting ratiocination, solving The Lake House, by John Rhode. This is a small town killing which leads to a big trial and an outstanding piece of reconstruction, including histrionics, by the Doc and his amanuensis Harold Merefield. Need I, must I, say more?" Another review in The Spectator felt "although without any merit of humour or characterisation, The Lake House is certainly a good mystery."
