Great for a large family

Set-up of quarters and kitchens allows for spending time together, or privately, inside and out. Beautiful beach with manageable stairs, including a landing with chairs. Would consider renting again. JM Plymouth

Lovely lake house with amazing secluded beach

This place was so nice for our family and kids! We were 3 couples, each with kids, so the separation of the unit above the garage was nice and the basement with shuffleboard was great bonus space for the older kids. Nicely stocked and communication with the owner was great.

Great Location

Perfect location! We loved the easy access to the beautiful sandy beach. The kids collected rocks and the teens played beach volleyball. We enjoyed running and walking in the woods and park right next door. And it's a short drive into downtown and to the golf course. Loved it.
