What a wonderful place with amazing hosts, Very accommodating, close to the water, with many deer often roaming the neighborhood. Thank you Shipleys for sharing your home with us and making us feel right at home during our long weekend retreat!
Went for a family lake retreat. Home had a nice outdoor area for relaxing and close proximity to 3 boat ramps. Host checked on us a couple of times during our stay to be sure we didn’t need anything. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
