Sweet little getaway

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful home on the lake. We enjoyed swimming in the middle of the lake, catching bass and the evening campfires. The kids absolutely loved the Lilly pad. The host was very nice & responsive to any questions.

Rest & Relaxation

Overall: This property did exactly what it was meant to do- allow us to relax and enjoy eachothers company for a week! Cons of our stay though- The water is not swimmable, we had to travel to a near by lake to actually go swimming. The house did not include a table, so it was hard to play our card games. The kitchen included a breakfast bar with stools for eating meals but not great for playing games. The week that we stayed was the hottest of the year... no ones fault, just ended up that way. The kitchen did not have garbage bags (no big deal) or dishwasher soap. We furnished it for our stay. Pros- had enough parking for everyone, had enough room for all that came, was nice that there was a fire pit to enjoy in the evenings, on a relatively quiet road that was paved and great for walking, and the neighbors were extremely friendly. The kitchen was extremely up to date. The one must see that everyone had was the kitchen storage. Many comments were made about upgrades to personal homes after seeing what was available in this kitchen. The master closet was another and main floor bath were also the most commented and complimented areas. We would use this property again if we had the need.

Weekend Reunion

Me and some friends stayed here for about a week and it was awesome! The cabin is beautiful, and full of anything you'll need, while the backyard is very spacious and has a great view of the lake. Easily had bags set up while others were at the fire. Also host had a lily pad they allowed us to use which made the lake even better! Would recommend for anyone looking to get away!
