Perfect place for a family vacation. The house has so much to offer. We didn’t even leave the entire time we were there! It was clean, comfortable beds, plenty for the kids to do. The owners are thoughtful people because anything we forgot to bring they pretty much had there. We would definitely rent this place again!

House is great but a little limited in baking equipment so come prepared with some disposable pans. House is beautiful and very quiet area. No constant boat traffic so that was very nice. Kayaks are at the house, but they are large so be prepared for 2 people to carry down to the lake. The hosts were absolutely fantastic and we really enjoyed our stay. The basement rooms had lots of fun activities for kids.
