We absolutely loved the property!! Great views and venue for a smaller wedding. Everything was very smooth, however communication between the hosts and guests could be better and making sure there is no tours during a wedding would be very crucial to future guests stay as it made the morning of a little delayed.

The cabin was loaded with everything you needed. Rooms were spacious and clean. The master bathroom was luxurious. The other bathrooms were clean and stocked also. The two down on the lower level were yellowed which I thought may have been from well water. The cabin was amazing with the lake, petting zoo, and the availability of horseback riding. My family was very impressed and requested we rent it every yearThe host was great at responding with updates and answering questions.

Perfect for our annual large family get away. grandma and grandpa loved the serenity, the middle schoolers ‘dug the vibe’ and the little ones enjoyed the open space to play and make a LOT of noise. Each kid caught at least one fish and we even got to enjoy the trails/horses. Enough space to all be together but not be on top of each other.

We had a wonderful time at the property. Our grandchildren loved swimming and running around. House was big and allowed our family group our own spaces. Owner was very responsive when we had questions or messaged. Allowed us to check in a little early. Gave us a heads up when lake was being treated and let us know still ok to swim and fish. Staff at stable/petting zoo area super friendly & helpful. We did encounter a problem with a "pest" on our last day but owner was very concerned and wanted to know as much info as possible to remediate the problem. They were on it and taking care of it. We would definitely return.

Perfect for our family!

This house is perfect for large gatherings. We were able to play games at the long kitchen table, we were able to take our annual family photos both sitting on the stairs and outside on the deck. It's a charming location with the animals all around. This is our second time staying here and we hope to stay here again next year. The owner is extremely responsive to all of my questions. An added bonus, this house is handicap accessible as there is a ramp going into the house and there's plenty of room inside the house to maneuver around in a wheelchair. We love it!

Great Country Living!

Such a great place to vacation with family! Lots of room and open spaces. Everyone enjoyed the roaming duck and cats, and access to a trail ride was awesome! The lake was so pretty, though had quite a bit of algae so we didn’t swim. All in all, a great experience!
