This was a great place to stay for our little family getaway. There was plenty of space inside and outside, nice and clean, good amount of dishes/ utensils (bring your own spices), comfy beds/pillows, bring able to tie our boat up at the dock was great and having the lake views was awesome! Would definitely stay here again!

Great family vacation! Spacious yard and beautiful home. Lots of rooms to accommodate for more than one family or lots of kids. Private beach with docks was a plus. Garage entertainment space and outdoor patio was awesome. Definitely would recommend to family and friends for a wonderful excursion.

This was a very nice place to stay. It was very roomy and spacious and comfortable with 5 nice bedrooms. It's a nice location too, being on an isthmus with water on both sides - you get a nice view of the water from the dining table and then on the other side is a dock. Friendly owner, and he got back to me quickly when I had a couple questions.

We had a wonderful 11-night stay at this cabin and would definitely recommend it. The cabin has a great layout, making it comfortable and easy to relax in. The sunsets over the lake were absolutely beautiful and one of the highlights of our trip. We also really appreciated how responsive and helpful the host was when we experienced an issue with our boat. Their willingness to help made a stressful situation much easier. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would gladly return.
