Clean and calm
We were very pleased to see that the house was clean. The owner had left a generous supply of paper towels and toilet paper for our stay along with laundry detergents and dish soaps. We did have to bring our own shampoos. There were more than enough towels. The location was quiet, we enjoyed the outdoor fire (with wood supplied) and gazebo. The nearby park a walking distance away was a treat as well with beautiful lake view and a playground to keep the kids entertained. The ping pong and pool table in the house were used as well. Only downside is the house is older so it squeaks a lot when people move around upstairs but that is to be expected, also lots of bugs outside in the area. Owner was available by phone to respond to any needs we had however it was a smooth stay and we didn't need to bother him. Will consider staying here again as there is plenty to do in the area and the house meets our needs.

We had a wonderful experience. Dave, the property owner, was great. He kept in touch and had excellent information for us. If we had any questions he immediately got in touch with me. The house was big, with so many different spaces to hang out in, and the lake was so close, what a beautiful view! The ping pong table, basketball free throw game and pool table kept everyone busy. Would definitely stay there again! Already sent my friend a picture and info so she can check it out for her large extended family!
