Stayed 4 days over Millikin family weekend to visit our daughter. A great place for us to be together, play games, and just relax! Wonderful location! I spent each morning sipping coffee watching the sun rise over the lake. Would stay here again!

Just what we were looking for. Beautiful view of the lake, sunrise was awesome. Walked to Devon amphitheater and the park. There were even chairs for the lawn seating! Laundry was nice to have. Kitchen had everything needed for meals. The dock was a great place for sitting and fishing. The multiple outdoor decks were nice. Host was easy to reach and helpful. No complaints from us, we really enjoyed our stay.
