This was an amazing stay for our group of 12! The cabin had plenty of space for everyone to spread out and find some privacy when needed. The little ones loved the shallow, warm water and sandy beach—it was perfect for safe, splashy fun. We brought our boat and were able to moor it just offshore, which made tubing and fishing super convenient. The teens and adults also had a blast using the paddle boards and kayaks provided.The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed, and the Blackstone grill was a great bonus!Phone service was spotty depending on the carrier, and the internet was on the slower side—but that’s to be expected in a more remote, relaxing setting.Don’t let the driveway photo intimidate you—there’s plenty of parking available on-site.Overall, it was the perfect spot for family fun and relaxation. We’d absolutely come back!
