Great Lake house spot

It definitely looks a lot bigger on the outside. We also thought there would be 6 individual rooms so that was a little misleading, but overall we really enjoyed our stay. The outside was beautiful and the inside kitchen was perfect.

Family Fun Weekend

Overall, the experience was pleasant. Beautiful views, plenty of seating, and all the amenities that one would expect from a lake house. However, the Wi-Fi was extremely unreliable which made very difficult to watch a movie with the family.

We loved this property so much! It was easy to find. The view from the front porch was amazing! We enjoyed floating and watching the birds. There was not a lot of boat traffic, which was really nice! The neighbors were also very vice!
