Our extended family had a wonderful time at this beautiful lakefront home. It is very will equipped in the kitchen with lots of dishes and cutlery. The kitchen was a good size so that several people could be prepping or cleaning at the same time. We loved having the two dishwashers as we were a group of 8 adults and 2 children. There were numerous sitting areas, inside and out, that the family could gather. We lucked out with the weather and took advantage of the kayaks available. Our grandchildren loved the private beach area where they could play in the sand. Our grandson was already asking if we could come back next year :-). Kathy was very responsive to any questions that I had. I would highly recommend this place if you are needing a house for a larger group. We hope to be back!

Beautiful Lakehouse…even better than we expected!! Plenty of space for all of us (8 adults & a 1 year old). Huge, well appointed kitchen, large fridge & 2 dishwashers were very beneficial for a large group.

Beautiful property!

The property was as beautiful as described. Access and communication with host was excellent. A little difficulty with parking at first because we had 2 pick-ups and the driveway is on a bend in the highway, but we figured it out. Thank you so much for letting us enjoy your beautiful beachside home.

Quiet, the view is amazing and the lake is steps away

Had a great time with the family. Each enjoyed there own rooms and wash facilities. a place for family and friends to enjoy the good times, the dining table large to fit all. Just like home! Everything was clean, except for one room, the sheets smelled sour, indication they were left in the washing machine too long before they hit the drier. Suggest remove from washing machine immediately.
