Perfect Lake House
We could not have asked for a more perfect cabin for our group’s long weekend visit. Our hosts went out of their way to welcome us, and the cabin was well appointed with everything we needed. We were comfortable and felt right at home. The extra touches by our hosts really knocked this one out of the ball park. We would definitely stay again, and would recommend to anyone else looking for a quiet cabin perfectly situated on a beautiful lake.

Weekene getaway
The host was great to communicate with. The location was great. Quiet and peaceful. Only complaint was when making coffee the 1st morning there, the coffee and filter from previous guest was still in there and moldy as well as coffee in the pot. There was also a k cup left in the single cup coffee maker. Upon checking to make sure we hadnt left anything under the bed. Found a half used water bottle (not from us bec it wasnt the brand we use) and a baby binkie (also not ours bec we left our kids at home for weekend getaway). Otherwise it was great. No other complaints. The neighbor dog Costa was so sweet and adorable. Caught a few fish off the dock. Would for sure considered a repeat visit in the future if we are ever up that way again.

Great Getaway with Beautiful View
My girls and I took our annual trip and this home was perfect. The outdoor living area was so nice in the evening to have dinner and watch the sunset. The dock was great for the kids and they were easily able to get in and out of the lake with the ladder that was a part of the dock. Everything was well maintained and we look forward to next year.

This house ended up being the ideal spot for my long weekend hiking get away. The house was comfortable and the host had all the bases covered. The location on the lake is very charming and so relaxing. We did not have to worry about a thing. Thanks for a great spot to rest, relax, and recharge.

Enjoyed our stay
This house was very clean, well-stocked, and cozy. I, my husband and 3 adult children had a wonderful time fishing, cooking and playing games. The view of the lake is excellent! My girls enjoyed the sunshine on the three decks and also on the dock. The many steps down to the dock might be hard for older people. Overall, the house was perfect for us! We would definitely rent it again.
