This lake house was perfect for my family. I appreciate the host for being readily available and answering the phone when I called. Overall, a great rental!!
Cozy, peaceful, and fun. The lake is quiet and relaxing. A perfect place to read a book and have a glass of wine. Great for a couples weekend or small family getaway.
Our stay at the lake house was absolutely wonderful! The house accommodated our family nicely. Communication with the host was easy with quick responses. The mornings were peaceful watching the day come to life and the evenings filled with the kids kayaking and fishing off the dock! Something for everyone! This was our first time here and will definitely keep this lake house in mind for future family vacations!
