You can also find a movie theatre nearby and fun park with go-cart rides and laser tag for the young at heart.

Copied from an email sent by a guest who stayed August 28, 2009 for 2 nights. Your lake house is adorable! It was clean, comfortable, and very cozy. It had everything we needed for the weekend. The 4 grandparents that came with us were delightfully surprised too. There was plenty of room for the 9 of us without being on top of each other. The location was fantastic! We boated both days. One of the grandparents is unable to ride on the boat, but was able to sit on the fantastic dock in the shade and watch her grandkids ski, kneeboard, and tube to her delight. We also enjoyed the use of the boat lift. Thank you for making the rental process so easy. I appreciate the extra pictures and the quick communication from beginning to end. We hope to rent again some time and will definitely recommend your place to our friends.
