I had a tall order to find a location with room for 6 couples/families for a weekend getaway with friends. This place exceeded our expectations! Tons of room to gather together and to spread out when people wanted some quiet time. I've never seen a Vrbo with a better stocked kitchen, and the arcade games were a fun touch. Michele & her team were very responsive through the whole process. We hope to come back!

We really enjoyed our stay. The pontoon, the trampoline, the fishing and the quiet lake/neighborhood was a hit with everyone! There were 11 of us and the house was big enough so it never felt too crowded. Well stocked house and everything was labeled so it was easy to find items.

We had an amazing stay! This property truly has something for everyone—our family loved the water trampoline, volleyball, playground, and the beautiful sandy beach. The fishing was fantastic, and having a pontoon available made exploring the lake so easy and fun. The house itself was spotless, comfortable, and incredibly well equipped with everything we needed. Property owners amazing and accommodating! From morning coffee on the deck to evenings around the fire, every moment was perfect. We can’t wait to come back!
