I wish we could've stayed longer, this was a great property. Loved having our own dock for the lake, we spent one day on the lake (with the lily pad!) and just chilled! The area is pretty quiet, nothing to crazy. The only downside I'd say would be the driveway and how steep it is, but started backing in and it made it so much easier! Super cute place and stocked with everything you need!

We enjoyed the property very much. We were just there for a quick weekend getaway and were grateful for the swimming supplies offered and the multiple ways to sit out and enjoy the sunshine. My only critique would be that I had to pre-wash many of the cooking tools/pans. The glass wear and plates were pristine, but you could just tell the pots/pans had little use recently. Otherwise a wonderful place and would return again.

Clean, comfortable, kid friendly especially on deck with gates. Our door code did not work when we got there, I called and within a couple minutes they could remotely open the door. Then called me back about five minutes later with a new code.The driveway is a bit steep at the top. you just have to go slow and I definitely recommend to back in. If the loose gravel would get cleared off, it wouldn't be as bad.
