Great Spot!

This was the perfect spot for our family of 6! The lake is quiet and the house came with lots of things to do on the water. We loved kayaking and fishing. The outdoor set up is fantastic with high quality chairs, fire pit, large grill, yard games and well- kept landscaping. Indoors is well decorated and comfortable. We hope to stay again!

Family get away

This property was gorgeous! A couple of places to eat at within a 5 minute drive if you wanted to eat out, and a stocked kitchen and grill if you wanted to eat in. Bedrooms spread out so you weren’t sleeping on top of each other. The Sun room was amazing!! We loved eating meals out there, and especially loved enjoying a cup of coffee there every morning! Would stay here again!!!

Great Lake getaway!

Beautiful location for a family retreat with all the extras included! Grill, outdoor cooler, patio umbrella, firepit. The interior of the cottage is just as nice. The decks space is amazing offering great views of the lake. The best feature is the sun room! super comfy sofas and chairs for enjoying coffee in mornings and taking in the sunsets on the lake regardless of weather! Wonderful! Host is super responsive!

This property is absolutely beautiful - from the inside to the outside! It's quiet and truly secluded even though it sits right off of Hwy 28. The inside is beautifully redone. The kitchen is well equipped. The owners allowed us use of their lake toys, even though we were unable to use them because it was simply too windy to be out on the water; but nonetheless, this is an added bonus making this home even more enjoyable and worth the money. The inside is laid out perfectly and there was plenty of room for us to space out and yet be together. The aesthetic is gorgeous and the kids even asked if we could live there. :D Thanks for having us! We'll be back!
