Memorial Day weekend at the lake!

This is a great property! Lovely home with a nice big backyard that is not too steep like some other places. Great for playing games, etc. Also, plenty of places to spread out inside. And dog friendly. Bright and open kitchen has a ton of storage and counter space which we appreciated. Rooms were clean and house was as advertised. The large screened in porch was fantastic with lovely views and we ate there for every meal. One warning - the water is quite shallow off the dock - you can swim in it and our kids did, but no deep jumping or diving is recommended and the bottom is quite slushy when standing. But that did not deter our kids (ages 11-14) who floated around happily and enjoyed use of kayaks and other floaties! We also rented a pontoon and were able to buzz out to the deeper water and do plenty of swimming there also. It's a nice quiet spot off of the main and more congested lake, which we appreciated. We enjoyed the fire pit one night as well and the neighbors were super friendly and came over to say hi and offer as their kayaks if we needed them. Our kids also enjoyed the golf game and achieved the #1 score which made them quite happy. Would recommend this place for a long weekend stay for sure! We love SML!

Incredible house; shallow dock; happy dog!

The house was immaculate! Lots of remote controls for various fans, lights, etc...and we couldn't quite figure out how to cool the upstairs master, but thanks to fans, we were fine! What a great house for gathering, game play, dining, reading, and spending a little time with 'golden tee'! The yard was super for our dog...and had it been a tiny bit cooler, we would have loved using the fire pit. Our favorite place was in the screened porch- it was wonderful. We rented a boat (our usual routine) and found that it was extremely shallow-- just helped us brush up on our careful maneuvering into the dock. Our recommendation: cue up your favorite 'jungle cruise' audio clip- it's a nice & slow no-wake ride into the cove and house. ;) Great house!!

Hello Angela, I am so glad you enjoyed your stay! I love the set up at the house too. The built in fire pit is a wonderful way to spend time with the family and I love the swing overlooking the water. Please come back for another visit soon. We would love to have you back.
