Quaint lake house well suited for porch sitters

The place is very well kept and maintained, we enjoyed our stay. We were pleasantly surprised by the size of the dining room table and the multiple covered picnic areas. Reminded me and my gang of summer camps spent up north. Would come again!

Dream Getaway

We have stayed here several times and it is such a special property. You get all of the comforts of home, but with a beautiful lake view and the quiet outdoors! It's a perfect lodge for summer fun or to snuggle up in when it's chilly. The amenities in the house and on the property can't be beat! Fantastic management and communications! We will be back very soon!

Homeschool trip getaway

A little outdated but overall super clean.The boat deck needs to be fixed. Bug control could be better seen a few scorpions centipedes spiders in the home. These small critters don’t bother us coming from the country but may bother people coming in from the city. Love the secluded location. Will def book again!

Laid back stay on a ranch. Lake front!

The property was beautiful and well maintained. The beds could have been more comfortable. The house sleeps 8. The one shower was hot and the ac was cold. The internet was spotty but this type of place, you should be outside anyways. We loved drinking coffee watching the deer, horses, donkeys and cows every morning. The fishing was amazing! We caught more then enough to have a fish fry! The dock was great! And host communicated well! Fully stocked kitchen for the most part to cook full meals. No washer and dryer. Thanks for everything
