We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. Everything was clean and beautiful, and the management company was so kind and helpful when I temporarily lost the key. It was also a great location close to the lake. We'd definitely stay here again.

Lovely & Peaceful!

Our stay was too short! We loved our time at the lake, our time on the back deck for breakfast & dinners and the layout of the cabin was very nice. The kitchen was large and had all the necessities for cooking at home which we enjoy doing with our family gatherings. I would highly recommend this place for small groups.
