Absolutely Wonderfull!!
The house was great for our 2 small families. The location on the river is perfect for a relaxing getaway/ day on the water.The walk down to the dock was well kept, and nicer than most places we have stayed at. The steps were a great thing to have with the incline.The dock itself was great, you can definitely fit 2 boats on it. Ours being a 26’ boat fit perfect. The top section is awesome for sun bathing and just a night of relaxation.Elaine is absolutely amazing!!!! She was very quick to respond to any questions we had before and during the stay. She even pointed us to some great restaurants and things to do around the area. 10/10 would recommend. 10/10 we will definitely be back

Great Lake Weekend with the Family
The common space was much more than we expected, and we had a great time. So much space and a nice setup for entertaining. Huge dock with a peaceful cove to lounge and easy access to the quiet side of the lake with lots of room to tube/ski.
