We loved this place! We drove from WA state to stay here for a family member’s Celebration of Life. It was a beautiful, comfortable setting for family & friends to gather and we appreciated all of the amenities and special seating areas. The fishing was great off of the dock and those dock mounted chairs were great. The skeeters were out in force and we thought we were prepared, but bring more. Lol. We also appreciated finding a nice place to have our family dogs stay with us as they do in our own homes. We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home on the lake.

Family Get-Together
The location was great and the house itself was great. The bathrooms and kitchen were clean, but there was a lot of dust on shelves, fireplace mantels, and particularly the blinds in the bedrooms. A number of boards on the upper desk are warped and could be a tripping hazaard.

Family Gathering
A family group of 25+ members used the property for a two day family gathering to celebrate a milestone birthday. One family resided at the house while the others were in the local area. We gathered each morning for the day.
The house was just what we needed. Ample room for all of us, separate areas, both in and outside, to allow us to visit individually or in groups. The kitchen and dining areas were large enough to accommodate all of us.
The setting at the lake contributed to a relaxed atmosphere as well as allowing the younger members to blow off steam.
We had a wonderful gathering and the amenities and size of the property made that possible.
