Beautiful home, close to the beach but private. Room for everyone to gather but also layout allowed people to find a quiet nook. Enjoyed watching fawns stroll through the lovely yard.

Mary Lou thanks for the nice comments. I love the layout and feel of this house. We hope you enjoyed ringing in the new year in our area. Come back in the summer when you can experience more of the area. Such a short walk to the beach from this house and this beach is huge and fantastic. Please let us know how we can assist if coming back.

Nice place close to the lake.

Beautiful home with comfortable and plentiful seating for our family group. We enjoyed the outdoor firepit and had s’mores. Beds were comfortable and everything was clean. The only issue was uneven steps, one up to the family room and 2 down to the den. Three of our group fell. It needs railings and bright tape.

The house provided enough room for our family to stay together for this week. The kitchen is arranged nicely for cooking for large groups, and the two sinks were handy. The house was well stocked with utensils, towels, etc. We did purchase more toilet paper as needed. We could not find a pair of scissors which would be a nice addition. The Wi-Fi was slow at times, but not an issue. The pool table was a hit. The air conditioner/heating system did not work correctly and caused some people to be too hot and others to be too cold. Even after a heating specialist replaced a controller, there still was an issue with extremes in temperature in various rooms. We loved the closeness of the lake and the provided beach chairs with wagon to transport them. Thank you for your attentiveness to questions and concerns.
