Stayed Jul 2, 2023My husband, our 3 kids and myself stayed over the 4th of July and had a great time! The lake is very nice, the other people around seem very kind and the owners were very nice and helpful with suggestions of events in the area. The spiral staircase was a little scary with our youngest, but other than that the place was perfect for us.

Stayed Jun 2, 2023Loved this place. And want to stay again next year. Better deal than a resort and have privacy of your own dock. Huge yard. Amenities were perfect. And getting a hold of the owner was easy and simple. Owner replied right away.

Stayed Jun 24, 2021One evening a Doe greeted us. Seemed to be curious about what we were doing. We got as close as 20 feet away. She turned her head and stared at us awhile and slowly went on her way. Awesome!
