Thank you for your stay, we would gladly host you and your family anytime!
The house is even better than the pictures - extremely clean and well equipped with everything from coffee to dishwasher tablets to incredibly comfortable beds!! Would highly recommend an off season visit, cannot speak to a summertime adventure, but definitely on our list of possibilities!!
The house was beautiful. Well stocked with towels and linens. Good outdoor space. The owner was easy to contact, quick to respond. The kids enjoyed the kayaking and the canoe!
I'd have to say that this was the best VRBO we had ever stayed at!! The house was immaculate and had everything that you could possibly want for a great vacation! Beds were very comfy and the house was well stocked! Katherine was very nice and very quick to respond to any question, want or need. We were there to go to a wedding, but will definitely be back for a longer stay to enjoy all that the home has to offer!! Highly recommend this home!!
This house is everything we wanted! It’s a beautiful, spacious, and modern home. It has comfy beds, beautiful bathrooms, and a huge kitchen and living space perfect for family gatherings! The outside space has a great view of the lake with lots of things to do. It is so cool that they have kayaks, canoes, bikes, cornhole boards, and grills to use. It’s nice to have the option of renting a boat too if we chose. We would love to come back and stay here again!
Overall, we enjoyed the home very much. It was clean and a nice size for our family. The view of the water was lovely. The panels that control the lighting in the kitchen / dining areas seemed to be on the fritz, which was a bit frustrating. Other than that, we had a great stay.

Megan, thank you so much for the review. We greatly appreciate your feedback on the lights. This is the first time any guest has an issue with our smart home technology, we also had our cleaning team and our electrician look at all of the lights. We apologize if it impacted your stay. We look forward to hosting you and your family again and hope you have an amazing summer!
We pulled up and the house was so cute. We loved the house and all of the thoughtfulness used in supplying so many baby supplies. Just sitting in the house or on the porch, viewing the wildlife was a delight.
We were pleasantly surprised with all of the accommodations provided, from so many floats for the water to an extremely well stocked kitchen.
We didn’t realize the garage doors were operated from inside the house and got assistance with that quickly and all was well. We would return in a heartbeat.

We had the best time at the lake house! It was the perfect balance of relaxation and activities! The fishing was perfect right off the deck for my two grandsons, ages 5 & 7. There is also a small inlet w steps to shallow water, perfect for my 3 year old granddaughter. The house is well stocked with kitchen necessities, towels, beach towels, out door toys, kayaks, tubes, noodles, you name it. Washer and dryer came in handy throughout the week as well. Good communication with manager. Check in and check out seamless. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
