Great stay on Long Lake
We stayed here with 4 adults and 3 kids. It was a very cute and well stocked home, just as advertised. The swimming raft, fire pit and boat dock all got a lot of use. Great family time!

We had a great time, lots of room, water activities and lake were perfect! Home was well equipped, had all the necessary items and supplies, well equipped. Adequate room for all our guests to stay. Deck over looking the water was nice for your morning coffee. I would recommend an additional couple life jackets for the water sport activities provided. Also, a slow cooker or crockpot would be nice. Overall, great place, we will be back!

Nice place for a long weekend
The cabin and grounds were very clean. We had 4 adults and 6 kids, and they all had a blast. The yard was big enough for the kids to run around and have fun while the adults sat around the fire pit. The only complaint we would have is the number of snails in the lake and the lack of a beachy front to walk into the water. But the kids still had fun using the kayaks and paddle boat as well as jumping off of the docks. All of the amenities were available and well stocked. Overall, we had a really great stay.

Enjoying every moment in life 😎
My husband and I ,our adult son and daughter and their families. A total of 10 of us all went in together to rent this house for four nights. It had some thing for everyone to do , kayaking, paddle boating and We rented a pontoon from a local place on the lake for three days. Spent a lot of time on it. anchor it out from the house for swimming and kayak back-and- forth. The first evening went to the local bar and grill for dinner . Each family took an evening to cook. 😃 we had 2 14-year-olds and 2 17-year-olds that enjoyed fishing from the dock. They drowned a lot of worms out there, but were able to catch some little sunfish and return them back and to the lake to grow bigger. Every evening we had a bonfire around a hugh fire pit ... the sunrises were beautiful ..the moon rising late at night was unbelievable . All and all we had the time of our lives .
