I can’t begin to tell you how wonderful trip we had! The house was beautiful and the view was something that you just need to see in person. Pictures do not do it justice. My kids loved the kayaks and paddle board. They fished whenever they wanted and I’m pretty sure my two dogs are depressed that we’re not there anymore.! Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Lakeside Stay

The Sunset Sanctuary is in an ideal location. The outside deck and dock are a nice place to sit and relax by the water. The house was clean and provided enough space for our party of 4. It was too cold for us to use kayaks on the water, but there was plenty of firewood provided. The host was very responsive and answered any questions we had.

Hi Bob, Thanks for taking the time to review us. After you mentioned the chair, we took it out of the living room. We replaced the umbrella. So sorry about the grill and pans - we will 100% address this. Glad you had a great time. See you again next time.
