Was a fun little place to stay. Will say there isn’t much lake front area to enjoy. It’s mostly just a dock to get onto the lake. As it’s mostly easement access for guests between two other houses. Staff was great and on top of the few things we asked for. And the restaurant on site serves some very good and very large burgers. Hoping to be back maybe next season!

Everyone was super welcoming! Neighbors and all helped us with our wedding at the lake! The cabin was PERFECT! Along with perfect views just steps away from the lake AND a lovely restaurant also just steps away! If you’re looking for a place to celebrate a romantic anniversary you won’t forget… THIS IS IT.

Great hosts! When we needed more towels or blankets, very accommodating. Restaurant had good food and lovely live music. Lake was perfect. Cabin was tidy and generally had what was described in listing. It just wasn’t ‘clean’. The floor felt like it was mopped with a kitchen grease mop. We wore socks that would turn black on the floor. The kitchenette again had what was described but the electric stove top did not work and should be replaced. No coffee filter for personal coffee and only decaf filter packs provided. A/C unit worked great.

Thank you for your review, we will replace the electric cook top and remind our cleaning crew to check the filters and coffee packets and we will try a different floor cleaning product. Thank you

Comfy little cabin by the lake

The cabin was really comfortably setup. I was there for the races at The Ridge that weekend, so didn't spend a lot of time onsite, just enjoyed a comfortable bed and hot shower.

We had a wonderful time staying in cabin 1. Great little spot that was comfortable and quiet. The staff at the restaurant were some of THE best people we’ve ever met. Just a great group of people who made us feel very welcomed and comfortable. We look forward to staying here again.

Property was amazing. There was a dock that we fished off of. Probably should have brought worms as our lures did not work well. The cabin was perfect and set a nice atmosphere.

Lakeside Fun!!

It was a great weekend away with friends and family. We collectively as a group rented out all the cabins for a weekend. It was a lot of fun. The dock was alright needs some updating, but in all a great time. Thank you for the great stay!

Great little cabin on the lake!

Super sweet location tucked away in the woods, overlooking the beautiful lake. The cabin was cozy, stocked with coffee, hot chocolate and popcorn. The dock on the lake was the perfect spot to sit and sip. Crystal clear water, and refreshing for a dip. My dog loved it. The host was very accommodating, i would highly recommended

Prior to our arrival we were told there was some construction being done near the cabin we rented. It was running behind schedule so the resort moved us to a larger unit at no additional charge. The restaurant and bar were a ton of fun. Apparently Saturday is karaoke night. We had a blast. We highly recommend.

Girls trip

I had a girls trip just me and a friend and this cabin is perfect for a simple stay in the middle of nowhere. I love that there’s a restaurant/bar in the parking lot. We went and they were having a karaoke night and it was just so much fun to watch! The place was clean. It’s not a hotel room by any means so just keep in mind you are staying in a cabin. But everything was well stocked. Host also had messaged me back about my parking questions quickly which I appreciated. Also loved that it was self checkin and checkout.

We booked this cabin months out for a family event. The day of check in i received a text that there had been a flood , overflowed toilet, sewage spill and the cabin would not be available. The mangement rallied and the overflow wasn't as bad as they said and we were able to stay after all. The tiny cabin has a full size bed in the sleeping room adjacent to the bathroom no door. The sofa features a queen size sofa bed that needs to be replacedif this is advertised as a place for adult to sleep. The mattress is lumpy uncomfortable and slides downhill. It may work for small children , but for two average adults this doesn't work. We also did not have hot water for our stay there except oddly in the bathroom sink. Shower was not useable due to no water and no water pressure. The kitchen sink also had zero water pressure. We were told its because the cabins and restaurant and a couple houses share the same well. Whatever the reason for what they charge a night, we should at least have a comfy bed, and water to shower or fill a pot of coffee. We appreaciated the effort made to get us into the cabin to be with our family but before you rent htis place you really need to know what we experienced. The cabin is darn cute but tiny.
