This is a one bedroom with a full size bed. Additional sleeping is found on the queen size sofa in the living room. Cable TV in living room and bedroom along with internet.

Everything you need for outdoor fun. Gas grill and lawn chairs, and picnic table also. Just bring you bug spray and beach towels.
After a busy day on the water, just relax by a campfire (wood provided) and enjoy the stars.

About the host
Hosted by Kathy selby
I grew up on the Barbee Lakes. As a child visiting my Grandparents at the lake all summer. Raking leaves in the fall, ice skating in the winter, and painting cottages in the spring. Summers are awesome! My Grandparents rented 20 cottages out in the summer and it was awesome for all of us kids. We met so many people and had fun with all the children that came to vacation! I have been blessed with getting some of the cottages back into the family and hope I can make your vacation as wonderful as it was when I was growing up. My Grandparents were great teachers!
