    Hose was great. Enjoyed lounging on the dock and using the fire pit. The pool table and air hockey were great too!

    We loved your home from top to bottom, inside and out. Great layout for big group of girls, family and friends. Large eating, card and game playing area for all of us to be together, very cool gaming floor for shooting pool, darts, karaoke, lg TV, and more! Fishing, swimming, kayaking right off the dock. Large deck right off main floor for all of us to watch the most fantastic view of the sunsets. 5 immaculate bedrooms with lots of room for each of us to have good sleep. And we all loved the huge kitchen ...perfect for an all women getaway! It rained all 3 nites so we couldn't have a fire but we will next time! Every amenity we needed, you had for us! Thanks! We hope to come back again!

    We had a very nice stay, 6 adults and 5 kids. Enough room for everyone to sleep comfortably and move about the home. Kitchen was nice and had almost everything you needed. There were plenty of towels and washcloths for the bathroom, along with shampoo and body wash in all showers. Owners were responsive when we reached out. Lake was nice with a private boat launch and dock. Lots of local restaurants and stores. We rented a pontoon for a few hours from Jet Funn down the street. Definitely would recommend this stay!

    The pics of property on line are deceiving and outdated. The outdoors is quite run down and not kept up. Rotting wood deck, and landscaping a mess. Inside met our needs well but overall not clean. Beds are fine. This property is very overpriced.

    Great location and amenities. The kids loved the access to the water for fishing and the game room and movie theatre in the basement. The hosts were in contact prior to our arrival and helped us remotely when we had trouble with the thermostat. The basement has a low ceiling for tall people, so watch your head. The grill in the back yard could use a good cleaning and maybe some light repair to rusted parts, but overall, a great find! We recommend! Thank you!

    Family of 10, six adults and 4 kids enjoyed the amenities of the home. Great deck for grilling and watching the lake. Dining table set up for ten. Large kitchen. Sandbox and swings for the youngsters. Fire pit for the evenings. Great pier for tying up your boat. And there are 4 bathrooms. There are basement activities as well....foosball, table hockey, pool table and home theatre.

    It was the perfect place to stay with 4 families all with kids from 1yrs to 9 year old. Lots of fun things to do. We were in town for family wedding and the space and location worked for what we were looking for.

    Our teens had lots of indoor entertainment options - the game room was a hit. It was a short easy walk for ice cream, a local coffee shop and pizza. The onsite boat launch was very convenient. We enjoyed our stay!
