We had a fabulous time from the moment we stepped into this home! The views are breathtaking and the house was cozy, inviting and had all the amenities that we needed! Very relaxing and restful weekend with a full day of fishing from the covered boat dock. We caught and released around 15 fish, from perch, catfish to big mouth bass. The area was so quiet and peaceful with friendly neighbors that would engage in small talk as they passed by on their boats or kayaks!Will definitely rent this place again!
