Slice of Heaven

We had the place for a weekend. It was so cozy and a perfect location! The weather ended up being bad, but the place was a stocked with board games for the family to play. We also appreciated all of the kitchen items being there for cooking. Everything we needed was there. We will definitely return to this little slice of heaven!

Relaxing Stay on the Lake

Our family enjoyed our stay on the lake. The cabin is charming and comfortable. The dock is perfect for sitting with a drink and a book. I enjoyed the swing looking out at the view. Little dog enjoyed all the smells and the sticks.I highly recommend the shower experience—tons of hot water and excellent pressure.

Beautiful Property

This was a great property for our 2 families and our fur babies! Our pet sitter fell through at the last minute and Russ was so accommodating. The properties were so cute and charming. We did a puzzle upstairs and watched the hawks, ducks, and fish from upstairs. Would definitely rent again!
