The house was fantastic!! Great location and plenty of room for our family. The Owner was phenomenal and communication was flawless. We will be booking this house again when we come back!
Short summer getaway with some close family and friends. House was perfect with plenty of room for everyone. Lake was beautiful and easily accessible for everyone. Host was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend and use for future stays!
We had a fabulous time and stunning is an understatement for this home. The weather was hot allowing us to spend many hours in the water and enjoying the spacious dock. The cove is in a great location with less boat traffic. The firepit and dock offer a fantastic view of the sunset. The home was very comfortable with a warm, cozy atmosphere. Plenty of room for our family and provided plenty of amenities.
The house was beautiful! There were 10 of us and everyone slept comfortably. The living areas were very spacious and we especially enjoyed the screened in porch as we sat in rocking chairs and listened to the rain each afternoon. We spent a fair amount of time cooking and found the kitchen to be well stocked. The walking path down to the water was perfect as we had several members in our group that struggle with stairs. The swing on the boat dock was also a big hit. The fire pit was was a perfect way to end the day, watching the sun set over the water and eating s'mores. We brought with us a jet ski and spent a lot of time just floating and swimming down at the dock. We also rented a pontoon boat while we were at the lake. We were there on a family vacation to celebrate our parents' 60th Wedding Anniversary. We have so many special memories from our trip that we will cherish for a lifetime.
