Good Value on the Lake
Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay, but there are some pros and cons to this property.
Pros: beds were super comfortable, the living room was cozy, kitchen was well stocked with amenities, two grills for outdoor cooking, fast internet, and a good dock to use.
Cons: small bathroom, our pontoon trailer didn’t fit in the driveway, and not all outdoor amenities listed were included (ie: no fire pit).
The property host was extremely responsive to any questions we had. Overall, we had a great stay, and felt the house was a good value for the price point.
