My family was in the area for a wedding. The house was wonderful! It is a great location right on the water with lots to do - fire pit, outdoor games, kayaking, etc. There is plenty of seating for meals! Julie was a fantastic host! She made us feel so welcome!
This lake house and property were exactly as described if not better. The place is super clean, the beds comfortable, the kitchen well stocked. Everyone loved the new game table, fire pit, kayaks, etc. Julie is a great communicator and provided so many amenities and thoughtful touches. We are already thinking about next year!
Our family has fallen in love with this lakeside house! Julie is fantastic with communication and really went above and beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable.
The house is spotless with adorable small touches that made us feel extra comfortable. Incredible view of the lake and so many amenities! We loved the kayaks, hot tub, grill, and tree swing by the water.
Grandkids spent mornings in the shallow shoreline; so clear, they were able to spot fish right from the pier.
The photos can’t relay the charm shared throughout this lovely home, and we couldn’t recommend it enough.
