Awesome property, lots of space both in the house and the yard -- private lot, sandy swimming area, good fishing, can't ask for much more. Our family with pre-teens, teens, and adults all had a wonderful week. Property located within 30 minutes of several possible day trips. Home was clean and well stocked. Owner highly responsive and great communicator. We will book again next year!
