I booked this place last minute for a fishing trip my husband, his 2 brothers, and our older children were taking in October. The owners were so thoughtful to check on them when they arrived late. They also had homemade cookies waiting for them. My family fell in love with this place…said it was a perfect location and very clean. We will definitely try to rent again next year. Thank you so much to the owners for sharing your wonderful place with my family!!!
