Fun at the lake

Cute little house close to the lake -

We had a wonderful time- nice little fire pit and seating area in the back yard for visiting. With a nice big deck for watching the sun rise with coffee ☕️ in the morning out front with view of the lake.

Weekend getaway for sports tournament

The layout of the house was perfect for entertaining. It was lacking in some kitchen equipment (no tupperware, mixer, dishcloths or pot holders). We had to do a quick wipedown of the fridge, counter tops and pans but everything else felt clean. Overall enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Fantastic

Perfect place for a short hunting trip. The entire place is clean and modern, very cozy and well laid out. Even better than the listing description. Owner/ manager was very responsive to communications. I’d stay there again in a heartbeat.
