About the host
Hosted by Julie Gross
Our large and growing family needed more room so we purchased this second property on this shared private lake to accommodate our overflow of family and friends.
Why they chose this property
Nature, peaceful, water access and views and plenty of wide open space.
What makes this property unique
Banjo may not be the fanciest cabin around but she is cozy and we have something that other rentals don't have which is seclusion, peace and quiet that you won't find in other areas.
