Kitchen was well appointed. The house was clean and we thoroughly enjoyed the pool table & foosball on the Lanai. And the mini-split AC was greatly appreciated! Decor was nicely done and we would recommend this vacation rental to anyone! We also enjoyed the chairs on the dock and the kayaks. Very nice place!

We stumbled upon this gem and will absolutely stay here again whenever our company works in the area. We loved using the kayaks, playing pool, and chatting on the dock. It’s not brand new, but it’s very well kept, comfortable, and far better than staying in a hotel. A fantastic place to unwind after a long day.

Lovely home!

This little house is beautifully renovated and located in the perfect place. There is plenty of room for a large family, and this property caters well to small children. The lake is lovely, and the kayaks were great for fishing and paddling. It was very comfortable, lots of fun, and had absolutely everything that we needed. It truly felt like we were at home. The enclosed patio was the perfect place to hang out and visit, play pool, cards, and foosball. If we are in the area again, we will most certainly stay here.
