My extended family was looking for a place to meet up for a long weekend, and this house ticked all the boxes. We enjoyed the outdoor area and spent most of our time swimming/skiing off the dock. It was also nice to have the separate downstairs apartment for people who wanted to stay up later by the fire. We will be back!

We were so happy with the property. The pedal boat was a blast the kids and adults enjoyed jumping off the dock. The boat slip came in handy, we rented from a local marina. The set up was perfect, Nana and Papa had the downstairs to ourselves and the rest of the family had plenty of room on the main floor. We came from Texas and enjoyed the cool weather! Thanks for sharing your home!! Hope to come back next year, the lake was fantastic!!

This home exceeded our expectations, it was beautiful and the perfect lake house adventure. It was spacious, clean, inviting, comfortable and it had everything we needed for our family weekend getaway. The deck, yard, dock and firepit were perfect for sitting outside to soak up some sun and to finish off our evenings with a cozy fire. We will definitely be making a return trip to this location.

The view and access to the Lake was amazing! The house was clean and simple, just enough to stay in and enjoy the Lake for the weekend. Host was friendly during this time. Neighborhood quiet. We enjoyed the visit.

Renovations on the house are not complete. The house still needs a lot of work to be worth what the charge is per night.
