We highly recommend The View! Everything about it was excellent. Communication with the owner was always quick and clear. Plenty of parking for the 4 families who came. The most well-stocked kitchen I’ve ever seen. (I always travel with good pans, a good knife, spices, paper plates, dish soap, laundry detergent, etc and we didn’t need any of that. The house had it all! Even every spice we could have ever needed!) we loved that there were two different living rooms to spread out in. Plenty of space for everyone to sleep, and the beds were very comfy. We brought an air mattress to turn the office into a bedroom only to find that they already had one there with sheets, blankets and a pillow! Loved the fire pit (and the s’mores kit that was left for us!). The water was beautiful — we’ve stayed at some lake houses that turned out to have pretty murky water. This lake was perfect. We rented to boat one day and it was amazing. So convenient to just head down and jump on the boat vs having to drive to a marina. There were two washers and two dryers which was so helpful at the end when we were all washing our towels to head home. Oh, also, there are plenty of swimming towels there to use! The views from the kitchen / screened in porch / fire pit are incredible. The lake was not busy at all and we were there in the middle of July! And, finally, when we left, we didn’t have to do a single thing but pack up the stuff we brought. It was amazing. All of us in our group of 16 completely agreed that this was a wonderful experience and we highly recommend staying here!
