Bess K.

The property had some really great aspects and a few that were not so great. First the good: we loved the lake! The two piers, slide, diving board, and stand up paddle boards were all family favorites. The hosts had everything we needed to enjoy the water. It made our vacation great. The less good: the actual accommodations were a little rough around the edges. A constantly running toilet, doors that don’t close all the way, cobwebs, and a shedding couch that littered the ground with pieces of black fabric. The stove only partially worked and we couldn’t find a smoke detector anywhere. The breakfast included bagels that expired the day before we arrived which made us question the freshness of the eggs (not in a carton) and muffins. Our greatest issue was that the table was so wobbly we were afraid to set any drinks on it lest they crash straight to the floor. Did any of these things ruin our vacation? No. But it wasn’t what I expected. A little bit of time and cash could go a long way to improve things.

Lake life tucked away!

This is such a fun property! We are staying half way during a longer trip and it was so spacious for my family. The beds are very comfortable and the snacks provided were such an added bonus! My kids loved playing and my husband had the most relaxing kayak ride in the morning. Definitely want to come back!
