The house was stocked with everything you would need during your stay. Clear view of the lake, beautiful shower and home. Close to stores and dining. Host was very helpful and even let us check out an hour late with no charge. I would highly recommend! My family and I are already planning on rebooking in the fall.

The property has everything you need to relax & have an enjoyable time. There is everything you need to enjoy the water by day and a fire pit to enjoy the evenings by.There is enough indoor & outdoor seating to accomodate your whole group eating meals together.The host Derek is very attentive to all your questions and request. One of our vehicle had problems on the way up & we reached out to him for help once we got there. He gave us a few local recommendations & followed up with us. We were in town for a wedding that had many events planned, our only regret was we did not have more tme to spend at the property. It is has everything up would need to relax and unwind. We stayed during the summer, but would imagine the proerty would be beautiful & acommodating year round.
