Great property and host

Very quiet and quaint cabin. The host was excellent and very responsive. The neighborhood is a little run down, but we had no issues with it and I wouldn't expect any based on the area. I would definitely stay again.

Little disappointed

The view and the listing didnt not match when arrive. Much more crowded and no grass to play in for our young boys. 2 of our 3 nights our view was not the lake but was tents and cars. The inside of the cabin was as showed and worked out great! Clean and plenty of space for my young family. If it would have been as shown on the outside I would have done 5 stars!

Nice stay

Although bath towels were provided, no washcloths or bathroom hand towels. We understood there was a propane grill. There was not, but there was a charcoal one. Loved the screened in porch!!

Bayside was great

We loved the family feel of the resort. It was quiet and pleasant. Nice trails to walk on nearby as well as fishing. Check in was simple and cabin was ready even though we arrived early. Recommended highly .

Quiet friendly resort. Screen porch plus internet and tv a huge plus. Electric door entry help. 😊👌

The owners went out of their way to be helpful. Plenty of room for boat and trailer right next to cabin with easy access. Mkitchen equipment clean and good quality. We would definitely consider another trip.

Great Trip

Beautiful lake and the sunsets were unbelievable. Cabin was clean and cozy with a fully stocked kitchen. Boat ramp and dock is awesome if you bring a boat. Lots of stuff for the kids to do that are all provided free. (Kayaks, volleyball net, basketball, etc) Out only complaint is that it in no way would hold 6 as advertised. We had 2 adults and two kids and it was very cramped. Kids slept on a fold out 3/4 size futon and complained all weekend about it. In one of the bigger cabins the location would be better, but more expensive also.

Very peaceful and also family oriented

A nice, quiet place with lake view. Great green space for kids or activities. Lots of possibilities for family gatherings or fishermen. Had to contact the owner and he was super nice, gracious and quick to respond.
