The homes which we offer are our own personal paradises which we stay at as much as possible.

All the homes are strictly set up for the Vacationer in mind and all in highly desirable areas with so many different type of activities imaginable for any age group. The homes which we offer have amenities which everyone needs (like me!!!) such as Wi-Fi, Cable TV, Air Conditioning, updated bathrooms and kitchens plus kayaks to use with each and every lake front home, some homes having also canoes and Paddle boats and all the homes have their own private Outdoor Hot Tub usable all year 'round which are all Pet Friendly (fee posted in house rules) as our four-legged family members love it Up North too as you won't have to kennel or have someone watch your pet.
