Our family has been doing family reunion vacations since I was a kid, and this is one of the best places we have stayed. I was continuously amazed at how well appointed it was--pretty much everything we needed was somewhere in the cabin. For example, the kitchen had tons of pots, pans, cookie sheets, an electric mixer, a Keurig coffee make (and a regular one), toaster, toaster oven, microwave, two fridges, and a lot more. My dad got stung by a wasp and I found an insect sting towelette in a first aid kit in the kitchen.

The outdoor space was nothing short of spectacular. The grounds are immaculately kept and there is so much to do. We went canoeing and fishing every day--my son caught 3 fish. There is a beaver lodge out in the lake and we saw the beavers swimming around at dusk one night. We found three snakes on top of the beaver lodge--very exciting! One night we saw a great blue heron flying overhead and then land in a tree. The creek was full of crayfish and there are tons of birds everywhere. I went hiking every day and I have never felt so safe hiking by myself. Everything is incredibly beautiful in this location.

The only issue we had was that the downstairs had a mildewy smell. I'm not sure if this was a one-time thing due to the carpet being wet in one of the bedrooms, or if it always smells like that. But otherwise this place is a gem and we are planning to return in two years!
