This was the second time we stayed in the lake house and again, it did not disappoint! There was plenty of space for our large family (4 adults and 5 children ages 3-16) and plenty of activities to keep them occupied. The house was clean and well stocked with all essentials. We will definitely be back again!

The home was beautiful with its view over looking the lake. The house was clean and comfortable with lots of room. Getting back and forth from town was easy and we enjoyed going to Octoberfest! The water level in the lake was too low for a swim but we enjoyed just sitting on the doc watching the birds.
