Thanksgiving Week at the Lake

Another fantastic winter stay at Lake Owassa - the house has great spaces for a group with pool table, air hockey and outside firepit. Kitchen is great for cooking at home- the view is amazing and the area is quiet. Magical. We will be back.

Awesome for sportsmen.

My cousins and I come to the area for our annual hunting trip once per year. Although we don’t hunt as much any more we still enjoy the area. The house was great. Large pool table gave us hours of fun. My cousins cast a line off the dock and caught a variety of perch and bass. All in all a great guys weekend.

Active families . .this is your spot

If you are a young active family this is a great spot for you. Much to do even kayaks and such available. We are older and just needed a place to lay our heads as we were here for a wedding. It served our purpose. If you are older as well just note that there are many steps that are hard to negotiate -- like a spiral to the downstairs and many to the dock
