Great place to stay. Nicely updated and clean. VERY quiet and peaceful. Wish we could have stayed longer. The house was perfect for our family, and the lake was a huge plus. We enjoyed spending family time together, and our kids loved fishing off of the dock.

Weekend Trip

Loved how modern and clean the house was upon arrival. I have stayed in other vrbo houses and this by far was the cleanest! We loved how close the lake was to the house. Kids enjoyed canoeing and kayaking. We took a day trip to coopertown, only about 50 minutes away. It was the perfect little getaway!

Very peaceful updated cabin on a pretty setting. Perfect place for my husband and I to stay for our son’s tournament at Cooperstown All Star Village. About a 25 minute drive to the ballpark. Cabin was well stocked and very clean.
