The home and views were perfect! The beds were comfortable but high and a step stool would have been good to have for my elderly mom, but everything was so nice. The AC system is great!
Great location with stunning lake views. The interior decoration is outstanding as are the amenities including modern range, outside grill and gas fire pit. The only downside is that there is no closet or chest of drawers. We would definitely return, in fact this is our second visit.

Quiet and peaceful
I loved the peace and quiet! I loved the view the surrounding countryside and the views are amazing I would definitely recommend to friends and family I will definitely be back next summer
Views were great from inside and from big deck. Appliances in kitchen were all new and in good working order. Bathroom was also new and clean. TV and wifi worked fine. Only complaints would be lack of hot water and could use some landscape cleanup.
The cabin itself was clean and well furnished. Finding the location was a little tricky and finding the lockbox took asking the people who were staying next door. The cabin was not marked Cabin A so we weren't quite sure which one was ours. It would have been nice if we could have watched TV we did not have a code/password so we couldn't watch anything. Everything else was fine. We paddle board and the lake was beautiful!
