The cabin is on nice gradual slop to lake, there is a sandy bottom section that small kids and dogs can go into, lake it quiet and the boat launch is a block away. Plenty of wildlife deer, fox, eagles, cranes, and birds to view. We ate, read, played games, and relaxed on the wrap around deck and screened in porch. It was a beautiful cabin minus the main shower - everything was great and in working clean order. we would book again if the shower which works, but needs updating, is fixed up.
