Hosts were exceptionally friendly. Cabin was just what we needed for a girls weekend. Spent a lot of time on the deck watching the kayakers and pontoon boats. Very clean, quiet, and dark at night.

Great Stay! Highly Recommend!

Cabin, location and hosts all wonderful! We had an amazing stay and hope to return! The cabin is just a couple yards from the lake with great fishing, quiet mornings and sunset dinners. Beautiful deck for grilling and relaxing. As well as many fun games for the yard and board games inside the cabin. Inside is decorated beautifully, stocked with many extras, super clean and cozy. It has beautiful new flooring which makes it feel bright, airy and welcoming. Also has an open floor plan for the kitchen, dining area and livingroom, which is great for cooking and relaxing. We took many walks and bike rides on the roads near by and enjoyed seeing deer, turtles, turkeys, raccoons and many other birds. Everything was so clean and taken care of with great care, it really felt like a home away from home. Mark and his wife are super friendly and accommodating as well! We would highly recommend!

Phenomenal Stay

This cabin is in my top 3 of all time rentals. From start to finish it was a wonderful experience. The cabin is super cute, clean and comfortable. Sitting out on the deck was one of my favorite things to do. So peaceful and relaxing. But those things aren't what make this place PHENOMENAL. Mark and his wife have thought of everything down to having stuff to make S'mores and providing fire wood for campfires. Greeted me after I checked in and made sure I knew how to light the grill, start the tv and cable and gave great info on the area and where to find stores. He made sure I knew if I needed anything to call or text (they live right next door). If I was sitting outside he would holler over to make sure all was good. The last day there were thunderstorms and a tornado, his wife came over to make sure I knew about the tornado, which was very close. They have an adorable cat named Beans that would pop over for a visit, I enjoyed his visits, such a sweetie. I will be back when in this area again! This is the perfect place to relax and rest. Thank you again Mark for making this such an awesome experience and sharing your beautiful cabin.
