This house was perfect for our family of 3 to stay at while visiting extended family for the holidays. The open floorplan of the kitchen-living-dining room worked really well for us. The beds were comfortable and we found everything we needed in the kitchen. Can't wait to stay again sometime when the weather is nice to enjoy the lake.

Wonderful little house with modern amenities like washer/dryer and dishwasher. House was labeled and directions/manual were clear. Host was communicative and helped us when we had questions. The lake was mostly frozen but my husband was able to get a line in the water for a bit. Loved it!

The house was in very close proximity to a small beach which we enjoyed with the grandkids. The kitchen is well stocked with all the dishes and pans you need. The description of the place in vrbo is accurate with a beautiful view of the lake. Shower pressure good, beds comfortable, and air conditioning great.
