Home for high school reunion, we greatly enjoyed this lake getaway to reconnect and relax as we caught up on life. Great place with great deck and views of the lake!
Property owner has great communication! Had an issue with AC at 9:30 pm and owner called right away and was able to fix the issue remotely!

Great stay at Shriner Lake!
This is the perfect location for all the 4th of July action at Shriner Lake and all the other nearby lake activities. The house is small and a little dated but it had everything we needed, the beds were super comfy, and the house was very clean. The owners were very helpful and responsive. The view of the lake out of the front living room window is stunning and we had the best seats in the house for the fireworks!
