The view was beautiful, we had the most amazing sunsets. We also loved watching the eagles in the morning, they were in the tree right off the back decks. It was beautiful and the whole family had a wonderful time.

Fun stay

Great stay! The property manager was wonderful. The beds were so comfy! The kitchen needed a few items for cooking meals but we made it work. Stairs are steep down to the water but the swimming and fishing off the dock were perfect for our family. Will stay again!

Loved staying here! The sunsets were absolutely gorgeous!! The dogs loved having free rein in the yard down to the lake since it’s fenced in all the way down! Lance was very responsive and made sure we were all taken care of! It was also close enough to a store and even a little bar that was super fun with live music on a Friday night! Will absolutely be back! Thank you!

The sunsets over the lake were beautiful. The house had plenty of room and was comfortable, but the yard was difficult to use for the senior citizens in the group. Also, the kitchen amenities could use an update.

Wonderful Lakefront Stay

We had an incredible time. Spent almost all our time outdoors on the balcony, the dock, the pontoon boat, and the jet ski. Enjoyed the perfect views of the sunset over the lake. The fishing off the dock was great - caught multiple largemouth bass. Lance went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. By far the most attentive Vrbo host we have ever had.

We had a lovely retreat in the Lemonaide cabin! It was a great spot close to the lake, and very relaxing. It seems the stairs to the dock are a work in progress, but we made it down the steep gravel walk without issue, and really enjoyed the fire pit. Hot tub was also a nice perk!"5 bedrooms" seemed a bit inaccurate, as one bed is actually on the second floor landing without privacy or a door. But this was represented in the listing photos, and we were able to make due without issue!Great host - proactive communication and no issues. Thanks for everything!
