Stayed at this property with two other couples for a golf and boating long weekend. The home is lovely and comfortable. The women loved the three season room for our morning coffee and chats. The home is very well equipped with all your cooking needs. Comfortable beds and a quiet location. The owner Jim could not be any nicer! You would not be disappointed with booking some time at this retreat.

Amazing stay! House had everything we could need and plenty of room for all the family. The boat rental along with property was just the added perk that made this trip so enjoyable for us all. The owner was always quick to reply with any questions as well. Would stay here again.

Lovely home with plenty of space for five adults on a weekend getaway. The three bathrooms were a bonus, and we made a couple of amazing meals in the spacious kitchen. The screened in patio and outdoor patio were perfect for a fall weekend and the evening trip to nearby Galena was fun.
