Our group of two families (4 adults and 5 children) was very comfortable in this home. We valued the many spaces that allowed for smaller groups to break off and be together (sun room, porch, deck, covered outdoor lower-level seating area, basement, living/dining room) as well as the overall large feel of the home and its lot.
Communication with the owners was prompt, friendly and clear, and the house had been thoroughly cleaned upon our arrival. We also enjoyed preparing our meals in the well-stocked kitchen.
A big open question for us was what the lakefront actually looked like, and access from the home was easy enough. Future guests should know that there is little to no shade at the lakefront and that the water access is rocky. This didn't stop our fun however (add water shoes and an umbrella or shade structure, and you're good to go).
We rented boats from the Damsite marina and enjoyed the cliff jumping option nearby. We also did some climbing at the Jamestown Crag about an hour away near Batesville and were treated to a beautiful mist on the Little Red River at the end of the Collins Creek trail.
All in all this house was an excellent size and home base for our group, and we left the area after a busy week without having done and seen all we wanted to.
Many thanks to the owners for making this beautiful space available to us!
