Perfect place for group of people. This is the second time we have stayed here and will definately book again. Location is perfect. Right on the lake. Close to state dock. House has everything you need. Games, pool table, fire pit, well equipped kitchen and laundry.
House was clean and neat. Perfect for a girls away weekend. Would recommend to all my friends. The lake was a bit further from the house than expected. But no problem walking down the golf path to the lake. Convenient to boat docks and gas for boat. Convenient to nice restaurant at state resort Park.
We loved the easy access to the dock for swimming and paddling. The neighborhood was very friendly and felt safe and inviting. The cabin was well stocked with extra paper goods and linens. We were very pleased with our stay and all the amenities! Would definitely recommend!
The house was lovely, clean and had such a beautiful view! The access to the lake was so awesome and providing chairs, fishing equipment and kayaks was a bonus!
Thanks so much for a great getaway.
