This lakefront home was perfect for our family of four. The home was immaculately clean and was beautifully decorated with a coastal vibe. The beds were also very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The pier and lake are literally just a few steps. We can’t wait to return!

Perfect Place

We loved the location and the convenience of being on the main highway. The home has beautiful decor, it's comfortable in every way, and they thought of everything you would need for your "home away from home." I'd recommend this get-away to a couple like us or for a family with kids. It was a great find for us!

Such A Great Place to Stay!

This lake house is absolutely where you want to stay! The house itself is so inviting & comfortable. The decorating is off the charts. Outside, there are many options. A covered patio, a lounging area with umbrella, fire pit with chairs, and a very nice dock to fish on. We really enjoyed our stay & will definitely be back!

Family lake trip

Our family stayed at the property for a few days to relax and be out on our boat. We enjoyed the ease of puting our boat on and off the trailer at the property and to have a dock to tie up to. The house was the perfect size and the screen porch was an added bonus. Thanks for responding to our questions. We will be back

Quack of Dawn

Loved our stay and would return. House was adorable and accommodated us well. Backyard was level and grassed. Not like many homes on the lake that you have to walk up and down steep hills or stairs. Brought our boat and kept it in the water the whole time. Boat ramp on-site was super convenient. We have a 21’ bay boat with no ttop and we did not fit under the Hwy 49 bridge by about 8”. The marina across the road would not let us launch there as we were not dry dock customers. So we launched at Union Boat Ramp to access the rest of the lake. That ramp is about 10-15 min away. Outside of that minor inconvenience the house was great!
