Camp Shady Rest was perfect for a weekend getaway on the lake. It was very relaxing spending time on the lake and we enjoyed using the kayak as well! The house had all the essentials and was very cozy. The location was great-restaurants/coffee shops nearby and a short ride down town and to the race track. We plan to return to Camp Shady Rest in the future!
