Awesome Stay for our Daughter's Wedding

This was an amazing place for family and friends to stay over the course of our daughter's wedding. The home is exactly as advertised. The location on the lake is nice with quick access by boat or car to several restaurants and attractions. The host was wonderful and checked in on us several times to see if we needed anything. We would definitely stay here again.

Family Vacation

We had a wonderful Family trip! The host was great at responding to messages and answering any questions we had. We had plenty of room for our family of 11 and the kids loved the playroom space. We did bring our boat and had a storage place for our trailer which was a plus. Great location on the Lake as well as by car. We will definitely be staying here again!

Family vacation

The lake house was great ! Very clean and well decorated. We rented the pontoon boat and it was very nice the weather was absolutely beautiful. The road the property is on has a really sharp curve but other than that the place is perfect our family really enjoyed our retreat we even met the neighbors who were from our home town. Great place.

Beautiful Lakeside Getaway

We had a wonderful time celebrating a family birthday in this beautiful lakeside getaway. There is a view of the water from 3 of the bedrooms which was so nice! Stephanie was so accommodating and responsive with any questions we had. The entire family enjoyed our stay and everyone requested we return to the property in the summertime! What a fun place to spend time with family. Can’t wait to return!
