This was the perfect place for our family. The location right on the lake was fantastic! Sauna, pool table, kayaks, canoe, foosball, outdoor furniture, etc.. and the house was very well outfitted. We would love to return!

A beautiful property that had everything we needed inside and out!

We had a fantastic time at this home with our extended (3 generations) family. The home was stocked with plenty of everything we needed – much more than we expected. We will definitely consider returning! A couple of very small things that might help other travelers: - Entry to the water is from the dock only and would be difficult with small children. Don’t let this deter you - there is a beautiful public beach close by and there’s plenty of space to play on the grass around the home. - Don’t park your car in the boat launch lot for even 5 minutes – you will get a ticket! - WiFi and cell service are a little unpredictable. - There's lots to watch on the TV but everything is streamed. There are no "cable/regular" channels.

Kitchen was well stopped and clean. We were four senior couples and used the shower stall in the additional building as there was a tub and no grab bars in the main house. The outside seating areas were great and we enjoyed it very much.We would highly recommend this.

Perfect getaway

A beautiful property with everything thoughtfully laid out and spotlessly clean. It was very private with a beautiful view of the lake from all over the cottage and lots of outdoor seating. The kitchen has everything needed to make a thanksgiving dinner. Olesea was very prompt with any questions we had. We had a wonderful relaxing time!

Fantastic stay

We thoroughly enjoyed this property. Each bedroom has a king bed and the sofa beds are comfortable as well. The kitchen is well stocked. The dock is lovely and there is access to some boating equipment. The water was only calm enough on one of our four days and the access to swim looked quite rocky. The water is really clear. On the other days, we swam at the nearby beach. The sand is well maintained and the playground is great for kids. Lots of picnic tables in the shade as well. The guest house has a pool table, foosball, darts and even a large sauna. The house was extremely clean and they provided plenty of toilet paper, bath and beach towels, and bedding. We hope to return next year.

Amazing

Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience. The house and games room were so nice....perfectly clean and well furnished. Almost all of the couches were also pull out beds which we didnt realize when we booked it! Form the king beds to the 80 inch tv to the multiple outdoor chilling areas, we were really comfortable. Everything on this property is top notch. Olesea was a pleasure to deal with and made things very easy. I would highly recommend this property to anyone.
