    We had an amazing family vacation at Dowling Lake Lodge to celebrate my nephews 30th birthday! The property was fabulous and a great location with a few bars and restaurants within a few minutes drive with great food and takeout. The property was even better in person than in the pictures, and the owners were very friendly and responsive. Five stars and would highly recommend! We would stay here again next time we’re in the area.

    Gorgeous house with easy access to the lake for fun and relaxation in and on the water. We loved the large table for gathering in the evenings, and lots of separate bedrooms for privacy for all.

    A large group of my family and friends stayed here to celebrate my graduation. It was the perfect location for a relaxing celebration. My nephews enjoyed swimming in the water and taking the paddle boat for a ride. The adult enjoyed grilling and spending time around the fire pit. I couldn’t recommend it more!
