Perfect family getaway!

Brad was a great host, answered all of my questions and communicated with me throughout the stay. Property is great. The lake is beautiful! We spent most of our time on the water since we brought our boat with. The shore was clear for swimming and even the dock was great for fishing! I would give this stay a 10/10 easily!
