    This home is so beautiful and homey! Very accurate to the photos, if not better in person. Spent the weekend away from the city to recharge and this was the perfect home to do so. Highly recommend!

    Nice cabin vibe getaway. Close to nature and amazing view of the lake. Beds are squeaky and makes noise with every turn. Location is hard to find at night but it add to our adventure.

    We had a lovely time. The only issue was that we couldn't really use the stove. The view was beautiful and we enjoyed the beach!
