Awesome Place to Relax
This home is great. It was very clean with a great layout, stocked with all you'll need and plenty of space with open areas so you can all be together. One of the big highlights for us was the screened in deck (no bugs!) with fans. It made it bearable to be outside when it was sweltering out even at night so we could enjoy the peace and quiet of the quiet neighborhood (it's not party cove, but our family group with young kids appreciated that). One thing to be mindful of so it doesn't ruin your trip is that the house is on an inlet. We were able to get our Wakesetter in there to the dock, but I was nervous enough to turn it off and paddle in at the entrance to the inlet then idle in the rest of the way. There were people fishing each morning in Rangers and Lund's reeling in bass, panfish and dogfish(?) so if you have an outboard you should be fine if you want to bring a boat back. There are also kayaks that our family enjoyed and it's a very calm area to check out turtles and frogs and everything. This wasn't a big deal for us, just be aware so you're not expecting a place where kids can splash in the water out front. If we end up going back to the area we will check this place first, I can't say enough good things about it. Owner was also very friendly and checked to make sure everything was good, which it was. I can't imagine anyone being unhappy with a stay there.

Perfection
This was our family’s second trip and hopefully will not be our last to this beautiful home. The house is spacious, clean, user friendly and has so many great places to gather and enjoy relaxed family time. We especially love the large screened in porch and it’s lovely view.

Resorters get away
This was a great property for our two family’s with college aged girls that play in Resorters each year. It was clean quiet and well kept. They have a pontoon to rent also. A storm came through and did minor damage the owners fixed it immediately. The house is on an inlet to the lake so you have great access and good views from the house. It would not be ideal for dock swimming otherwise we have stayed in many places over our time playing up there. I would highly recommend this place.

Clean and spacious
We really enjoyed this vacation home. Many only have 2 bathrooms so we really appreciated the 3rd bathroom. We took our boat, not realizing that the dock is on an inlet just off the lake. It was too shallow for our boat. Public ramp is close. Still great views and connected to the lake. Fishing off the dock & kayaks were kid favorites. Probably wouldn’t jump in the water off the dock. We loved the screened in deck and spent most of our time outdoors or at the game table in the basement. It’s also close to town for meals or the store.
