Great location

We enjoyed our stay and were happy with the accommodations. The location was central to all the sights we like to visit while in the area. The washer and dryer were a plus. The owner was quick to respond to messages and provided detailed information that was relevant to staying there. We would definitely stay here again!!

Perfect location. It’s a few minutes from where we could load our jet ski into the lake. Minutes from quick shops- take out food- quiet neighbors. We enjoyed our weekend stay! First time staying in the area. 10/10
