Check in went smoothly. So impressed with the home. Spectacular view, with top of the line furnishings and windows etc…..Cozy tv area, well done kitchen, game room was super. Plenty of sleeping options, and all very comfy. Easy to communicate with the manager of the property. Gave a super recommendation for a pontoon rental. Ready to help make the stay wonderful. The lake itself is crystal clear and we used the kayaks every day. We really loved the covered deck for dinners. Beautiful breeze from the lake. Would recommend highly!!

Plenty to keep everybody busy screen doors can be tough to operate. Grill already need updating or servicing. Game room a big draw for the little ones. Great view, great swim area and great access to water
