    This is our second time staying on property, and both times were everything we could have hoped for. The house was big enough for our entire large family, and many mornings and night spent fishing on the dock! Can’t wait to return

    Great location. We enjoyed the game room with our son and sitting on the outdoor deck. It was close to the downtown area so very convenient.

    Our family group of 10 spent a week here and this property worked great for us. We had 4 trucks with boats and there was plenty of room for all. The location was convenient for us and enjoyed time on the deck after we returned from our days of fishing. Management staff was helpful and responsive which made for a great experience.

    Beautiful log home with fantastic appliances! My only complaint was the dock which seems to be a place for all the geese to congregate. A broom is kept there to remove the droppings. Boat launch if needed is less than a mile away! Overall, one of the nicer homes I have rented!

    Beautiful rustic, comfortable accommodations. No swimming or tubing possible so we went elsewhere for that. That paddle boat and kayak helped entertain. The separate bunk house game room was a big hit with everyone. The visiting geese were annoying but we understand why they love the area so much!

    Well appointed property, fabulous kitchen....we lacked nothing. The wildlife views were amazing. Otters, swan, geese, river rats swimming down the creek and cows in the pasture on the hills beyond. We were able to dock our boat there and had a very fun and relaxing vacation where I honed my pool game.

    We had a great time at this property. It was very well maintained. We were able to walk into Clayton and to the ice cream parlor. The club house was an added bonus for additional space and a place to have some fun and play some games on a rainy day. We would definitely stay again.

    Rustic but quaint. Nice morning views of French Creek with the sounds of bull frogs, ducks and swans floating throughout, and fish lapping the outer waters. Great location to all restaurants, boating activities, and shopping. The host, Shana, was fantastic. She was there to answer any and all questions within minutes. And this is what gives everyone the security of being on vacation in a strange place. We gave this place a top 5 rating all around. A must go to location.
