Great location

The house had plenty of room for me and my 8 friends (and 5 bathrooms helps a lot). The lot is semi-secluded with a big yard on the lake. This was the second time we have stayed there and will definitely be going back.

Lake Francis house

This was a quiet clean relaxing place. Just what we needed while attending a family member in hospice. We highly recommend this home away for any guests looking for peace and quiet, enjoying nature, and having a lot of room to spread out and live. Stay off your devices and look at the lake!

Family Gathering

It is a very nice house in a great location. On the north end of the lake with one house on the east side and woods on the west. Very private part of the lake. The lake was very nice, one of the best lakes for water quality in the area. Fishing was good for bass, northern and panfish. Already rented it again for next year.
