Fall Break

We enjoyed our stay at this property. The location is great. We caught fish from the dock. We enjoyed the spacious patios and fire pit outside. Beds are comfortable. The staircase to upstairs is very small but suitable for children. The only negative is the house and patio area were not as clean as most rentals are upon check in. We had also asked prior to check in if firewood was available for the fire pit and were told yes. However, none was available so we purchased this once we got there. I would also recommend the owner add some kitchen knives for those that enjoy cooking. Overall the stay was great and we will definitely return!
