This stay did not disappointed. I couldn’t tell you about the host because we didn’t have to contact them. Beautiful home, amazing views, clean and everything working as it should. Hot tub was really nice. Driveway is really steep as is ramp to the dock but it was all well worth it. Outdoor TV, outdoor furniture all other both decks. This place is top notch!!!

This lovely lake home was for the most part clean, spacious, and accommodated our family of 10 very well. We found the furniture and beds to be very comfortable. The kitchen and seating for meals (both inside and out) was comfortable for our group. The outdoor gas grill showed signs of aging and could use some TLC. Access to the dock and lake was great and our kids and grand kids all enjoyed fishing and swimming - though the water was a bit chilly during spring break! Communications with the owner was top notch. Overall, we would highly recommend this beautiful lake home to anyone looking to relax by the water and make some wonderful memories with your loved ones.

The house sits overlooking the lake with a pristine view from almost every room in the house. The owners were very accommodating with our early arrival and requests. He even offered to extend our stay for a nominal fee if we desired. The open concepts makes it a great place to stay with a large group.

Absolutely amazing place. Wish we had figured out the sound system sooner. It was easy to use, just didn't get around to figuring it out until day 4. Thought it was a police scanner at first.lol Also, the kids board games are missing pieces, so bring your own. The biggest problem outside of that, is that we should have booked a few more days.

This place is absolutely AMAZING! We had a fantastic Labor Day weekend and we truly cannot say enough good things about this place. From the fabulous kitchen and dining area, to the cleanliness of the house, everything was perfect. But the dock and outdoor space are truly unbelievable. We spent the evenings watching sunsets on the dock and then watching football on the covered porch and the moon shimmer on the lake below. We truly hated to go inside as we had the best weather ever. We can't thank you enough for sharing your place with us. Don't hesitate to book this house as you will not be disappointed. A 10 out of 10 in all areas!

The house was perfect! We had 6 adults and 4 teenage children. There was plenty of room to spread out. All 10 of us enjoyed family dinners on the outdoor deck and watched a movie on the outdoor television. We played lots of games on the lower deck. The kids loved jumping off of the 2-story dock. The hot tub was immaculate. The kitchen is well equipped for any type of dinner you would like to make. The owner, Steve, was easy to reach and went out of his way to make sure we had a wonderful stay!

Perfect Thanksgiving Retreat

We stayed at this amazing property over Thanksgiving week with a large group, and it was absolutely perfect! The house had everything we could possibly need to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The location was ideal – quiet, peaceful, and perfectly suited for unwinding and spending quality time with family and friends. The surroundings offered a tranquil escape, yet we were close enough to enjoy nearby activities and attractions.The host was incredibly responsive and welcoming. From the moment we booked, Steve made sure all our questions were answered and ensured everything was ready for our arrival. Throughout our stay, he remained attentive and approachable, which truly enhanced our experience.

The check in process was very easy and there were instructions on how to use the many amenities throughout the property. The property was as described and was very spacious. Plenty of room for multiple families to stay and still have some privacy. The area is quiet and we explored the lake via a boat rental from the marina about 15 minutes away. Overall, a great place and would highly recommend and stay again.
