I loved the layout of the floating house. It was like a cottage on the water. Everything was as described and thoughtfully furnished. The outside area was the best in the lake in terms of space, seating arrangements and comfort!

We loved the property! Plenty of room and very comfortable. Bedrooms without a/c got a little warm at night but that is our only complaint. Would recommend!!

Mother/ Daughter weekend

Very relaxing, close to restaurant but far enough away not to be disturbed. We enjoyed the kayak and paddle board. The fire pit was an added bonus. Only trouble was finding the Wi-Fi password. Would definitely recommend this property.

The property boasts an excellent location. The host provided exceptional service. The cabin was impeccably clean and fully equipped. The photographs do not adequately represent the property's appeal. The deck and outdoor entertainment area were a key feature..

Great location. Easy to get to and from. The only issue I had was cleanliness and the couch was uncomfortable. There was dog hair in clumps on the floor , food stuck in the couch and the cabinets had some kind of sticky substance. Otherwise it was a pleasant stay.

Wonderful Weekend on the Lake

The houseboat was perfect for our weekend get-together. The bedrooms were nicely decorated and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was very well stocked. We had everything we needed and then some. The outdoor space was wonderful. We had all of our meals outside. Plenty of shade and comfy chairs for relaxing. Fun time.
