This house has everything you need for a relaxing lake getaway. The kitchen is fully stocked with every utensil and appliance you could possibly need for cooking meals.The location is unbeatable. The property itself is fantastic for fishing, and the beach is located right next door. Having the beach so close, along with the playground right there on the sand, made this the perfect spot for our stay. Highly recommended!

We came back after 2 years, and nothing has changed — it's still the perfect getaway. The beach is very close, the kids had a great time playing in the sand, and we loved having the zoo and outlets nearby. Highly recommend

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was set up very well and we had many things to do. Most of us had little or no experience on the kayaks or canoe. But found them very enjoyable and it was very nice that everything was there and included for us to use.
