This was our third stay at this property, and we have always enjoyed our stay here. The house is so cozy and comfortable. Those giant windows showcasing the beautiful view are wonderful and one of my personal favorites. Another is the big deck and the patio set next to the grill. I loved those so much, I tried to find the exact set for my home, to no avail though. They just don't make them like that anymore, I guess. We love everything about this house. Everything! There's so much room to spread out. Our girls absolutely love being able to have their own rooms and bathrooms, a huge plus they don't have at home, like their brother does. My family of five plus Bernie, our fur baby, had more than enough room to spend together or alone when needed. We love this house so much. Everyone spent hours in or on the lake swimming, fishing, playing. It's very rare we get to enjoy so much time outdoors together, and we're grateful for the experience we've had year after year in this wonderful home. It was spotless and had everything we needed and more. I locked us out when we got there, and the hosts responded immediately and helped us get in. They were so welcoming and kind. I appreciate the hospitality! Thank you for the amazing experience we've had every trip to this fantastic place.

Very peaceful

We were able to relax and enjoy nature all around us. The view was breathtaking and it so peaceful. Just what we needed. The home was completely stocked and ready for our visit. We would definitely consider returning here again one day. Our only drawback was not having a boat to enjoy more of the lake. But very grateful for the time spent there.

Cozy house with a beautiful view

The house was exactly as described. The beds were comfy, the view was beautiful. 7 friends came together in this cozy house! We had to download an app so we would know what all the bird calls were. We watched the loons and other waterfowl all weekend. We will be back next year!

Family Friendly with beautiful views

The pictures don’t do this lake house justice. The views are beautiful, the house is very comfortable with lots of extras to keep the kids entertained. We enjoyed dinning in the deck and fishing and swimming off the dock. Our family ranges from 81 to 8 and there was something for everyone to enjoy at this rental. We would love to stay again.

Water play

We had a lot of activity in and around the water. Kayaking, boating, swimming, and fishing. The lake was so close to the house with a gentle slope. It made it easy to get back and forth from lake to house. The cove was quiet and there wasn’t anyone but us.

Fun Family Lake Vaca

Overall the place was nice and the owner communicated well. Would have given all 5 stars except the outside patio area could have been cleaner, several cob webs, etc. and a few days into the trip there was a septic smell in the house. Notified owners and they were gonna take care of it.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay! Our cleaners & pest control do their best to knock the cob webs down on the porch between stays, unfortunately being on the water and in the woods there are lots of bugs. We had recently had the tank pumped and were surprised by your comment, good news is we are having a new system installed this weekend. We hope to host y’all again in the future. It was a pleasure having you

Lovely Lake House

My niece was getting married, and I found this lovely lake house within 30 minutes of the venue. There were 9 of us, and we had a fabulous time! I would love to return for a longer stay!!! If you are searching for the perfect getaway, this cabin is your place. The mornings are fabulous with the pier on the lake. Angie was so helpful over the weeks leading up to our stay. Jim was very helpful as well. They were so accommodating!!

A Much Needed, Relaxing Stay

This was our family's second year here, and we had an even better time! The house was immaculately clean and is a great place for all ages in our family. There were 6 of us and 1 small dog, and there was more than enough space for all of us to spread out and be comfortable. There are also numerous spaces for family time and fun. We brought our boat and launched it right next door at the community boat ramp, then parked it at the house's dock for the week. Having it ready and waiting to take out so close to the house was wonderful! The fishers among us spent hours and hours - from dawn til dusk some days - fishing from both the dock, banks, and the boat. The biggest fish caught for the week - a 20 lb bass - was caught right from the dock by our 17-year-old son, to the chagrin of the rest of the competing party. I've never seen him so excited! Our adult daughter, home from college for the summer, caught 30 (we lost count) of differing sizes of fish from the banks and dock. She was winning until he caught the monster bass, then we claimed him the champion. Even our youngest daughter (13) tried fishing and had a great time and caught her first fish ever. This motivated her to catch several more. All of the girls spent time tanning and listening to music and laughing together. We had plenty of privacy and peace and quiet. It was a priceless vacation, and we wholeheartedly recommend this special place for all families. We will most likely be back ourselves as soon as possible.

It was a great property and great location! We would definitely rent again. Older but updated well. Clean inside, bedding and towels were great. Great spaces. The game was a great space, although a fan is needed in there as it did get warmer than the rest of the house. The back yard is great. A couple things I would say it would be helpful is to update what is available in the kitchen (it said Keurg so we purchased Kcups and there was no Keurg & it had crock pots and didn't say that so we brought ours) . Also, there were a lot of spider webs on the back deck that we had to knock down so we could use the tables & chairs and not all the porch seating was usable because they needed a coushon which was not available for all outdoor seating.
