The location was so close to the beach but far enough away from the partying in the evening! Home was so clean, so spacious. Perfect for family gatherings, accommodates young children. Each bed was comfortable, kitchen was fully stocked. Highly recommend.

It was adequate, the yard wasn’t well maintained, which we were not impressed with as you come to a lake resort to send your time outside .

Wonderful place for our extended family to spend time together! Close to the beach and playgrounds, and walking distance to boats and mini golf, restaurants and pubs. Home is cozy with lots of nice decor. Kitchen is well-equipped, with lots of utensils and small kitchen appliances. Beds are comfortable and we all slept well. Highly recommend!
