Beautiful place with everything you could need and more. Check in was easy, everything was clean and well cared for and the house had such a cozy feel. Paddle boards were a bonus and the sandy beach was great for kids. Would definitely stay here again

Nice spot in fun town

Location was great and set-up was nice for our girl’s weekend trip. Lake looked clear. We did not go in lake but enjoyed time on the dock. Sufficient parking and household necessities. Would recommend!!!!

Do not stay at this property.when we arrived the lower carpet in front of the bathroom was soaking wet. They came and fixed it the next day but didn’t leave a fan to dry it up or for the smell. Since the lower level had the Tv we couldn’t use that area. Asked for a partial refund from owner and have not heard back from them. Our stay was in July.Very disappointed

Nice townhouse on the water

The lake was beautiful and clear. The townhouse had plenty of space for the 3 of us that stayed. Water pressure and temperature was great, however the smell of the water was fairly unpleasant. It was especially noticeable in the shower but even the water from the kitchen sink had an odor that kept us from drinking it, probably just due to the source of the water, but still worth noting to bring your own water for drinking. Shared walls are rather thin, we could hear the neighbors vacuuming and such. Nothing excessive, just worth noting. Overall stay was pleasant, appreciated the proximity to everything.
