Very good location, beautiful lake view and their pet deer keep you entertained from the expansive porch. We were on motorcycles so we didn’t take advantage of the lake but the roads kept us busy all week.

ALFORD’s Getaway is a beautiful home on a quiet cove which was perfect for our families mini vacation. The house was spotless and there’s alot of space in the bedrooms to spread out. The best part of the whole place is the view and the wonderful cove it sits in. We 100% recommend it if you are looking for a beautiful view and a deep cove to kayak and fish.

Great place!

This is our 4th time staying here! Perfect location. Love that each bedroom has its own bathroom. The dock is great place to tie up our boat and jet ski. Ate our meals on the porch. Enjoyed mourning walks in the neighborhood. Our family has made many memories here!

Fantastic Stay!We had an excellent stay at this home! The property is in a peaceful cove with a great dock. The house was extremely clean and well-maintained, with very comfortable beds.The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. We especially loved that all the bedrooms had direct access to balconies—both upper and lower levels. Communication with the owners was smooth and easy.We would absolutely stay here again.

Amazing stay!

Impeccably clean, very spacious, beautiful dock, and views!! The kitchen is completely stocked with everything needed, and the propane grill was brand new! We have owned two beautiful lakefront homes, so we are pretty picky about frontage, etc. and this home surpassed our expectations. So thoroughly enjoyed our time there!

Amazing views. Ample space and plenty to keep us entertained. Overall, we had a great time. The kids didn't want to leave. Only cons were bringing your own linen (towels and sheets, etc) and taking your own trash.
