Quiet, restful place-nicely appointed. Just a couple of suggestions that would have benefited us--being able to close off the bedroom and window coverings in living area/kitchen that would provide privacy.BTW a beautiful friendly dog!

Very clean and easy stay. Very nice for a couples getaway. The dock and lake were just gorgeous to hang out, tan, and swim in. Easy parking and check in/out. We had a blast for the price we paid and just enough privacy for the two of us! We had access to Roku tv as well to watch movies, full kitchen for cooking, and laundry. Loved it!
