This was exactly what we needed! My boyfriend and I loved the hot tub and fire ring, and our son loved climbing up into the loft. We also appreciated it being pet friendly at such a reasonable price. The extra little touches make the place even more welcoming, including games and puzzles, candles, and fresh eggs in the fridge. Some things I thought worth mentioning: the pictures make it seem a little bigger than it is. We found it perfectly cozy, but families bigger than four may feel cramped, depending on your style. There is a neighboring house visible from the fire ring, and some general lake sounds (plus an occasional rooster!) that we heard, but overall very secluded and peaceful. It is in the hills, so the yard didn't include a lot of level ground-just something to keep in mind for kids/pets/anyone with an issue with a few stairs. Definitely a great place to stay if you're looking to participate in outdoor activities. We went on a gorgeous hike and took a canoe from the nearby marina out on the lake. We would absolutely stay again!
