We had a wonderful stay at this property!We had a group of 11, 4 adults and 7 children. The water is clear and we loved fishing, hunting crawdads, boating and swimming to the small island offshore. The space was perfect at for the group with how the bedrooms were spaced out and the living rooms had a nice cross breeze. All amenities were perfect for a peaceful getaway - easy and inviting place! Loved the coffee brewer. They have a nice mini pontoon and we rented a large pontoon from a local boat club which was great to explore. Loons and eagles were incredible and saw some black bear in the area. If we get up this way again we will stay here no doubt. Thanks Odessa!
