Very clean. We always bring our own covers for the furniture due to our small dog that sheds. But the owners already had some available so we used those. The kitchen had everything you needed. Had a great stay.

A Perfect Fishing Getaway

This was our second time staying at this property and once again, it was everything we hoped for and more. The house is wonderfully maintained, very clean, and thoughtfully stocked with everything you might need for a relaxing visit.We came to fish, and the peaceful setting made it the perfect place to unwind after a day on the water. It’s quiet and calm, yet just a short drive from downtown. It was close enough to grab a bite or explore, but far enough to enjoy some true rest.Communication with the host was excellent, just like last time. Everything from booking to check-out went smoothly.This will not be our last stay. It has officially become our go-to spot, and we are already looking forward to coming back!

Wonderful place on the lake

Four high school buddies and I stayed here over a long weekend. We had a great time. Check-in and check-out were easy and well described. The cabin was quiet, well-stocked, and convenient. It has a great covered deck as well as an uncovered deck. Great place for family and friends.
