LAKE INFO
Swimming and/or Floating is encouraged. Water is great for swimming and water levels are always high enough for a boat to be docked
Rocky Shoreline access – lake level fluctuates depending on the season.
Spring – Lake levels will be high. The docks do not start getting installed until late April. We do not GUARANTEE any dock in the water before Memorial Day.
Summer – High Water Mark is June 1st. Depending on the weather, the lake levels may come up higher than that making the docks hard to access as their walkways will be underwater. We do our best to make sure they are accessible, but we cannot always get to them on demand.
Fall – Water levels will be lowest, and docks will start to be removed from the lake until the spring. Boats can still be docked, water levels at the end of the docks are still acceptable for boat docking.
Winter – Lake usually freezes, and ice fishing is popular. Any access to the frozen lake is “at your own risk”.

We had a wonderful week! The house was perfect for our whole family. The house was clean and comfortable. Everything we needed was provided. We all had a great time swimming and floating in the lake!!
The property was very good, overall. It was pet-friendly which I needed and the Lake View was beautiful. There was plenty of room for sleeping for 6 of us. The cleaning service could have been a little better. We found napkins and a hot dog under one bed. Kitchen and bathrooms were clean.
Cozy home with all amenities provided. Wish there were less trees obstructing view of the beautiful lake from the home. The water was too cold in mid June to swim for us, but we enjoyed fishing on the dock and had fun on the paddle boards. The view of the lake from the dock was beautiful!
Very impressive property with a lovely view of the lake. Weather turned out to be great. enjoyed the layout of the house and it had all the amenities. We were so glad we could bring our dog Charlie. i would definitely stay there again, and this time i would find a boat to rent and really enjoy the lake. It really is an amazing place to relax indoors and outdoors. If i had anything negative about it , i would have to say the outdoor deck lighting on the railings and steps need an update... none of them worked. It was only an issue walking down the steps late at night in the dark. But not a big deal.

We had a great week at the house and spent a ton of time down by the water on the dock. The house is spacious and the beds are comfortable.

We enjoyed a relaxing week in this waterfront property - the multiple decks were awesome.
I would have liked better lighting in the common areas for night time reading.
I would rent again.
We did a short getaway for my husbands birthday. The house was amazing, and the property manager was too! Will definitely be going back and staying longer! Loved that we had a private dock, and a close boat launch. The property was absolutely beautiful.
The property had a great view of the lake. The house was clean and the beds comfortable. A very enjoyable weekend with friends sitting around the fire.
