Beautiful house and property. Could not ask for a better all around experience, the lake, a fire ring, clean house with great rooms, wonderful mattresses, and a very responsive hostess. Quiet little lake neighborhood, perfect for unplugging and relaxing. Highly recommended!!!

Thank you so much! Looking forward to your next stay!
The host was most accommodating!!! And I had to reach out multiple times. She always responded quickly and was so very helpful. The lake house was perfect with many sitting areas! The view of the lake was gorgeous from three sides of the house! Highly recommend it!!!

Coming back every year!
We loved this place! We stayed for two nights and wish it had been longer. We had 9 people including kids, and we were all comfortable.The house was super clean, and the AC worked great, which is huge in the summer!Tons of fun stuff to do on the lake, which is just a perfect size. Not too big, and not crowded!There was a rowboat, several kayaks and some other stuff waiting for us.We also caught a ton of fish right off the dock!The kids had a blast, and so did our dogs!Couldn’t recommend this place more - will definitely be back next year.
Great overall. House was very clean and we had no issues with the house. We had tons of fun fishing and going out on the boats. Made some great memories with the kids first time fishing. Had a small issue with a local family of hornets. Found some spray, in the house, and made quick work of them! The house has pretty much everything you'd need.

From the owner: "Thank you so much for your review! I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. I wish I had known about the hornets during your visit; I would have been happy to send pest control right away to handle it. I truly appreciate you sharing that feedback, and I’m glad the rest of your time was enjoyable"
