The property was clean, as advertised and the owners were great.
However, the advertised price per night of the property is nearly half of what we actually had to pay after all of the fees. This is absolutely ridiculous.
My friends and I really enjoyed staying at this clean, well appointed, and well maintained lake property. The boat and swimming dock are in excellent shape and made for a fun visit!
This cabin was specious & the owner was super friendly & attentive to our needs.
