We stayed here mainly as a place to sleep. It was within walking distance of parents where we spent most of our time. The cabin was clean and we were communucated with leading uo to our stay so there was no anxiety about the process.
I rented this for my adult children to come to the lake while we were camping at Nemo. The house was located about 5-10 minutes from us so it was perfect. It was very clean!!! A great place to stay. We would definitely recommend.
We visited for a fishing tournament. The communication with the owner was great and timely. Check in process was super easy. There were lots of things for indoor activity while it rained. Really quiet neighborhood.
The property is close to everything you would need to enjoy a weekend at the lake. The kitchen is well equipped and there’s plenty of room to relax. Our only issue was that our cell coverage (T-Mobile) was very poor, making it hard to coordinate with family staying at another part of the lake.

Glad you enjoyed your stay. We plan to get internet service by next spring that should solve the cell service issue. Thank you for your input.
Thank you Kathy
I am glad you found the house clean we work hard to make sure it is clean and ready for our guests.
While the house is basic it is the area we come to enjoy. Getting away from the traffic and hassle of the city. I really enjoy sitting around the campfire with friends and a friendly game of horse shoes or just relaxing in the hammock. But the lake is the big draw with fishing, swimming and playing in the water.
We are glad others can come and enjoy it and have a clean safe place to rest and recover.
Thank you again for the heads up and input we use it to provide the best experience possible for future guests.
We were looking for a place to stay close to the Hermitage campground where lots of family was camping. This cabin was about ten minutes away. We brought a fishing boat along and used the ramp that was close to the property to put it in. We also kayaked by the boat ramp. Boat ramp is gravel but worked fine for us. Great patio for relaxing in lawn chairs and grilling. We enjoyed our stay and host was very informative and easy to work with since we didn't know the area very well.
Overall a good experience. There were only a few things that were frustrating. No back porch light and there were massive amounts of leaves covering walkways and the patio. The house is a little older, but things were very clean. Overall, it was a fun, affordable, clean stay!

Glad you enjoyed your stay. It is hard to keep up with the leaves this time of year I was there on Wednesday before your stay and had them cleaned up but by the time I left on Thursday morning the leaves were accumulating.
We spent a long weekend with family. Plenty of room, near the water, with multiple kid friendly beaches and playgrounds just minutes away . We had a great time. The owner was very kind and responsive.
