Long weekend at the Lake

Cabin was RIGHT near the water as advertised. Quiet neighborhood with a quaint little public beach a short walk down the road. Loved the fire pit as the weather was a little chillier than we anticipated for mid July (highs in the upper 60s). Thanks for a great stay 🙂

Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023
