Awesome lake view getaway

Beautiful place - so clean and super cozy!Absolutely loved the views of the lake and enjoyed hanging out on the back patio (the hot tub was perfect too). The beds were super comfortable and the neighborhood quiet - slept like a baby the whole time there! Also loved all the attention to small details. We will definitely return in the warmer months to fully enjoy the outdoor amenities.

Getaway weekend

Very nicely decorated, good kitchen with all needed supplies and amazing views! Living room is comfortable for 4 adults. Mattresses could use updating. House was very clean, but hot tub could use more effort.
