Reviewer Comments:
We had a nice stay. Level yard was great for playing catch, frisbee, etc. Dock was great, easy water access. Hot tub, grill, dock were all in very good shape. Fire pit close to water was nice. Kitchen, dining and living spaces were nice. The property represents better in person than it does in the photos. The location is quiet and comfortable.
This is lovely place. We loved the great lake views, easy access to the water, the covered porch facing the lake. The inside was nice and the kitchen was well-stocked with pots, pans, dishes, utensils, etc. Furniture and beds were comfortable enough. Hot tub was enjoyed several times. No issues with the check-in process.A few things kept us from giving 5 stars:- The place was a little more care-worn than it appears in the photos.- The heaters on the main level are quite noisy. If we had needed them more, it would have been quite annoying.- The house has no A/C, which was not a problem for our stay, but could have been in the heat of summer.- If you plan to cook and like good knives, you should bring some. The ones provided were only fair.
The location is perfect on a beautiful part of the lake. the backyard was perfect for lawn games and picnics. the fire pit was great and the hot tub was clean! there was no AC but the house cooled off with windows open and fans on. overall we had a great time and would stay here again!
We had such a wonderful experience. It was a great location with everything you need. I would definitely stay here again!

This house is small, but cute and comfy. Great location. Amazing yard! We spent most of our time outside which was perfect. Between the firepit and hot tub and the dock, we enjoyed our stay thoroughly. The beds could use a slight upgrade.

No trouble with the property. Lessons Learned: Cell phone coverage is spotty in the area so have a plan i.e., maps to get around if you are unfamiliar with the area. All in all, we had a great experience!
