The setting is idyllic - the pics are right on target, it really is beautiful; we are grateful for this getaway for our family. The owner and rental process are friendly and easy. It is a simple home environment - we had to buy toilet paper and there were no washcloths; towels are small but there are lots of blankets and we were super happy with the foldout sofas which are great for kids - adults who have sore backs, maybe not; because I cook I would need to bring some things the kitchen doesn't have (mixing size bowl, pyrex or trays for roasting, pitcher for drinks, some food prep utensils, stuff like that) but my husband and I and the kids like to take it easy when we are there and there are good places to eat out. The paddleboat needs repair (rudder doesn't work), and the boat has some marks of use (cracked bench = sharp metal) but we are there to experience simple pleasures (fish, swim, lay out) and the rejuvenation of the fresh air, quiet environment and beautiful nature all around. We would all grieve if this place weren't available - it truly is a very important retreat place for our family, has been for years, and the kids always say it's their favorite vacation that we take. I pray they never sell and if they do, they sell to us!
