The host answered all of our questions and provided clear instructions. The house was beautiful and cozy - just what we needed! We loved the bath towels and the brick accents in the bathroom floors. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook, and the beds were comfy. It was refreshing and relaxing.

We had a wonderful stay at this waterfront property! The house was very clean, cozy, and homey, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy time together. The dock and waterfront location were a huge bonus, and we loved having access to the kayaks, paddleboards, cornhole, and other yard games. There was something for everyone to enjoy!The spacious kitchen and living room were perfect for our larger group and made cooking, gathering, and entertaining so easy. The entire experience was seamless, from scheduling to check-in and check-out. The hosts were fantastic, very accommodating, and even checked in with us during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed.We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing waterfront getaway with family or friends. We would definitely stay here again!

Hosts were excellent! Very communicative throughout. They provided swift & through responses to all inquiries. This house is immaculate. Cute little touches like the Christmas tree really made it feel like home! Very spacious and comfortable. Beautiful lake views! Beds were all extremely comfortable & we already ordered a set of the sheets they had on the beds there because we loved them so much! Overall, we had a wonderful stay & would book again there in a heartbeat!

The property was as listed with plenty of room, convenient location, and very clean. We loved the calm waters so our water toys didn’t get banged up at night, yet we were only a few minutes from open lake. We also loved being near a boat ramp and Lakeshore Restaurant was only a few minutes by boat or car. We also had accessibility to use their kayaks, life jackets, extra towels, etc. And the house was immaculate inside. The grounds could’ve used some tidying up but overall it was a great week and we appreciate the hosts hospitality . Last, but not least, very few steps to the water was REALLY a plus too if we forgot something or when a shower popped up!
