I can’t say enough about this beautiful cabin. It was such a great layout and the views were incredible from every room. The dock was amazing and we spent so much time in the water because the setup was so good. Thank you so much for our wonderful vacation!

Value was high for a property that allowed you one towel & washcloth for 4 nights!! You had to bring your own beach towels. Bathroom amenities were very cheap.no towel bars to hang your towels after shower. No toaster that we could find. However we did love the decor & kitchen was well equipped

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the decor and found the kitchen well equipped. We do want to clarify a few points for future guests. Prior to arrival, we provide detailed information and instructions regarding what is provided at the property and what guests should plan to bring. We provide **one bath towel and one washcloth per guest based on the maximum sleeping capacity of the home**. The property also has a washer and dryer available for guests’ convenience should additional linens be needed during their stay. We also clearly communicate prior to arrival that **guests are responsible for bringing their own beach towels**. With the number of guests our property accommodates, we are unable to supply beach towels for every guest. We appreciate your comments regarding the bathroom amenities and towel hanging accommodations and will take those suggestions into consideration. We’re also sorry you were unable to locate the toaster. We appreciate you staying with us and are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the home’s decor and kitchen.

We had a wonderful stay at this lake house! It was absolutely perfect for our family—clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The dock was fantastic and made spending time on the water so easy.The only suggestion we'd make is to provide access to the dry dock if you bring a boat. We tied our boat to the mooring buoys, and it took a little more of a beating from the water movement than we expected. Using the dry dock would definitely be the better option.Other than that, everything was excellent. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great family lake getaway

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that your family had such a relaxing stay and enjoyed the home, especially the dock and time on the water. It means a lot to us that you found everything clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for your vacation. We also appreciate your thoughtful feedback about the dry dock. That's helpful insight, and we'll review how we can better communicate docking options for guests bringing their own boats. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us. We're so glad you had a great experience, and we look forward to welcoming you and your family back for another lake getaway!
