A great getaway!
Our group had a really lovely time staying on the lake. The view, the ability to take a boat out in the morning, and a dip in the afternoon... a delight! It's a little more rustic indoors, so be prepared to bring things like olive oil, or pepper, if you're planning on cooking. And linens aren't included. But beyond that, the VHS collection was very fun, and the grill and fire pit were also a great way to spend the evening. Thank you to Robb for a wonderful long weekend!

Tranquility
Enjoyed the peace & quiet of the area. The cabin sits at the top of a mountain overlooking a lake. Keep in mind after turning off "Main St " the house is on a single lane non paved road. If another vehicle approaches some one will need to back up. A big plus is the bar/restaurant (with great inexpensive food ) walking distance from the dwelling. Owners were very responsive.

Excellent Stay!
We had a wonderful time at Ava's on Lake Desolation! The cabin has a wonderful location, right on the lake, with the most beautiful view! Our stay was so incredibly relaxing! This was our second time staying at Ava's and it won't be our last!

Nice Lake house, nice lake
Enjoyed some peace and quiet at this cozy getaway. BBQed most nights and made s’mores on the fire pit over looking the lake. The lake itself felt clean even if bottom is muddy. We used water shoes. Took advantage of the kayaks and went to Desolation Island which was fun for our 5-year-old. The house itself is not fancy but cozy and nice enough to relax.

Bachelorette Get away
Had a fun/relaxed weekend at Robb’s cabin for my sisters bachelorette. Beautiful view off of the back deck, beds were a little stiff though.
