    Ok. If you are looking for a family stay...this is the place. Seriously, we have been renting different homes for years in October and this one was fabulous. 2 totally separate spaces so works unbelievably well for families. And the owners were above and beyond helpful. Even helped us find a charger for an OLD laptop..which was essential for a business deal. Did that on a Friday night! As for the house, they provided absolutely everything a family could need. We were stunned! The kitchen was as well appointed as any kitchen I have ever been in...and Ive been in a tin of great kitchens. Lest I forget, we forgot a critically important stuffed Bunny that my granddaughter was devastated over. But guess what? The owners scoured the house, found it and make an amazingly quick return so our granchildren could sleep once again.Serioulsy rent this house!

    The property was great for our large family. Plenty of bedrooms, and the upstairs and downstairs spaces gave everyone plenty of room to spread out. The upper deck overlooking the lake was a favorite for everyone, and the pontoon made it easy to enjoy the lake. Plenty of dishes, cookware, towels, and other accommodations to make us feel right at home.

    Very nice place. Clean, rooms very comfortable, accommodating, everything we needed was available. The scenery beautiful and so peaceful. Enough towels, bedding, cooking needs. Just can't find anything wrong. Maybe one thing.....it was over to soon. Made wonderful memories. Thank you all.

    The house was spotless, in a great neighborhood, well stocked and the hosts were wonderful to work with. Really enjoyed taking the pontoon out and having a fire at night. Would definitely recommend for a family or group get away!

    Loved all the amenities for kids. Toys, plastic plates, utensils and cups, etc. The playground there was great. The hosts were pretty quick to respond if we needed anything. A couple minor safety things: none of the plates were actually microwave safe which was pretty frustrating when we were doing leftovers and the lawn person came to mow the lawn during nap time without any notice. Totally get mowing, but some heads up would've been helpful as our kids were playing outside and the person mowing came very close to them.

    We are a group of friends that are like a big family. We had a great time at the house playing games, talking and riding the pony when it didn't rain. We highly recommend it.

    What a beautiful stay! The house was great and the kids loved the play equipment and had a great time in the lake! The pontoon was a great size and everything was set up great! The hosts were very prompt when we had questions and very pleasant to work with. We highly recommend staying at this beautiful house.

    This property was perfect for the whole family! All ages 2-68! The water is awesome and depth was a peace of mind while watching the three little ones play on the dock and dip in and out of the water. My oldest boy caught several bass all over the lake and saw a variety of fish in the water during our stay. There wasn’t a table we didn’t use… We were ALL able to have breakfast, lunch, and dinner together; be it eating downstairs, upstairs, out on the deck, or down by the water! This place was worth every penny! The owners were so easy to communicate with! We will be back and next time for longer!
