The house was very well located. Everything was very clean and organize. We had a great time with the kayaks and paddle board. Big selection of games for the kids to play.

The host was very responsive and helpful. We loved the shuffleboard and inside place. Only recommendation would be to get more outside furniture as that where we wanted to spend most our time and luckily we brought our own because there were only four.

The property was well stocked with toiletries and all lights and fans were labeled which I appreciated! I wish there were more towels, so each person could have two big towels after a shower. Also a lot more make-up towels! Other than that, the home was perfect and I loved the two fridges and ice makers! Highly recommend

Our family stayed here over Labor Day weekend. This property offered plenty of room for all of us to spread out. The upstairs living space has plenty of seating and great views of the Lake. Open the large windows for a great breeze off the Lake. Blackout shades throughout the home. The home is really well insulated so when the baby wakes up early, or some want to stay up late playing games, the rest of the house can still sleep. Parking for 4 vehicles.

The property looks exactly like the photos! Beautiful and relaxing! My kids loved the sand shuffle board, pak-man arcade game, Yard games, kayaks, paddle boards, sunrises! We also enjoyed having the park in the front yard to run around, ride bikes and burn off energy.

The property accommodated our family of 10 great. Loved the extra space upstairs and 2nd full refrigerator was much appreciated. Lots of space to relax and spread out. The children enjoyed the PacMan game and variety of board games. We had great weather and didn’t most of our time on the dock fishing. Fish were hitting like crazy. Enjoyed the green space in front and across from the cabin for playing and letting the kids run around. All inquires were addressed/questions were addressed immediately. Great property. We had a fantastic family vacation Jill B
