Fun fishing trip.
The ice wasn’t perfect during our stay, but the cabin was nice. Clean, plenty of sleeping space and lots of games in the garage. Would recommend for anyone looking for a nice place to stay.

Wonderful Lake House
When I booked this house it was a new listing and didn't have any reviews, but the pics looked good so I took a chance. I'm so glad I did!!! I have stayed at quite a few properties and this was by far my favorite. House was clean and comfortable. Kitchen was stocked with all the necessities plus more. Beds were good. There is tons of extra place for guests to sleep besides the 2 bedrooms, including plenty of blankets and pillows. The lake has one of the nicest sandy bottoms I have seen. Lots of fish caught right off the dock as well in the boat we brought. Screen porch was nice when the bugs got to be too much. Game room was so much fun for the teens and adults. We will definitely be back! Thanks for a great stay
