Our extended family stayed at the Self Lake House for a 5 night visit. The house is in a great location on the lake, and offers lots of non-digital fun for the family. We organized kayak races, cornhole tournaments, fishing contests, and hosted our own Lake Olympics challenges. We brought our boat and had no problem docking along side the boathouse. The cove is quiet and calm, but deep enough for recreational floating. Sean (owner) is very responsive and nice. I would stay here again, and best of all we could bring our furbabies.
