Very nice

I enjoyed myself a great deal. The accommodations, while rustic, were clean and comfortable. Somewhat like Waldon Pond. The setting was quiet and serene. I particularly enjoyed the front porch with a lake view in the morning, with a cup of coffee, and the evening with an adult beverage. The owners could not have been nicer or more accommodating.I would recommend this to my best friends.

We stayed 6 nights and had a great time. It’s an old, beautiful home that is being renovated. The creaking floors and screen doors and the amazing view from the back porch all came together for a genuine “up north” experience.
