My husband I just visited this lake house for the weekend for our 10 year anniversary. We had a great time and especially enjoyed the hot tub and playing pool. The kayaking was nice too. Would definitely consider going there again. Faith was patient with all my different questions and always answered promptly. It was nice getting away without the kids.

We spent the 4th of July weekend at the lake house. The house is wonderful. Plenty of room, quiet, and lots of room for kids to run! Not a far ride to 7 points recreation area, which was really nice. It is a bit of a walk to the lake, make sure you use the wheels for the kayak....you'll need them on the way back!!! It's a quiet spot for kayaking, fishing and swimming. Don't have to worry about speed boats. We had a wonderful Holiday and would love to go back during the winter for sledding fun!!

The house was located in a very peaceful setting surrounded by beautiful mountainous scenery. We enjoyed a relaxing vacation playing pool, watching movies, BBQing, and chilling in the pre-warmed hot tub. Our dog loved running around the large property. As a family we enjoyed the scenic walks to the lake.... don't forget your fishing pole! The house was very clean upon our arrival and warmed up to a cozy temperature. The owner was easy to contact and ensured everything was in order before we arrived. She was truley a pleasure to work with.
