SML Hidden Gem

We had a great vacation at the Gate house. The pictures online are wonderful but when we arrived, the layout and the attention to detail was amazing. Beautiful home. The location was great and very private in the cove. I would recommend definitely having a boat ( we rented and many places to choose from) to explore the lake. Everyday was a new adventure and places to explore plus the weather gods were with us this past week. The dock is wonderful for hanging out and enjoying the evenings. Kitchen was very well stocked and made it a pleasure to cook meals. We all agreed we would definitely rent the Gate house again and had a memorable first visit to SML! Thank you!
