Wonderful Spot
This property was a really cute place for my two friends and I visiting the area.
You can walk to the lake from the house!
The home sits at the top of a little bit of a steep incline, so chains or winter tires are helpful when it snows.
We loved grilling and spending time in the hot tub.
The only thing I want to give a heads up about to others is that the grill ignition is not functioning, so you must use a lighter to light the grill.
We also had a hiccup with no hot water in the shower, but the hosts were super quick to get the maintenance man out there, and he fixed it while we were out in the village!

Dixie cabin
When we arrived everything seemed fine. Then when I was barefoot walking my feet were so dirty! Why you might ask? Because the floor was filthy dirty.
Simple, it has all you need to have an awesome time.

Quaint Cabin
Loved the hot tub. The main room was very comfortable and cabin had the expected amenities. Check in and check out process could be easier but overall a great spot.
