Perfect getaway

Had the most relaxed, fun weekend here with family. From sunsets, watching the water from the front porch, kayaking, corn hole, bike riding, to bon fires and S'mores. Plus you get Ed the hostess with the mostess, who will take care of anything you need or want.If you are looking for a place to get away but still close enough to do it all, then this is the place for you

Week at the Lake

The house was very clean and stocked well! Ed was even so nice to have treats for the kids and a bottle of wine for the adults. Nice central location and dock access to the lake.
