Farm Island
Our family really enjoyed our stay at this property. Great for relaxing, fishing and water sports. Host was very accommodating. Bring enough supplies as there is not a store/marina on the lake.

Amazing stay!
Jared is a great host! We rented his cabin for our friends bachelorette party, the cabin was clean and big enough to fit all of us comfortably. There is a huge yard which was great for playing games and relaxing around the bonfire. We rented the pontoon (it’s in excellent condition) to cruise the lake. We would definitely rent from Jared again!

Up North Weekend Getaway
My family and friends rented the cabin for an annual trip we do every year, and had a wonderful experience! Jared is a great host and very prompt with communications and accommodating to any additional needs. The property is beautiful, and had a great time with bonfires, yard games, fishing, and boating. I would recommend staying here and look forward to the opportunity of future stays!
