Great experience
My stay was great. The weather was cold so we did not get to do any outside activities on the lake. The windows looked out at the lake and it was so relaxing. There was plenty of room inside for all 5 of my kids.
This location is great for people looking for quiet and enjoy peace! The house has lots of space and has all the amenities required.
My only down side if the WiFi, as I had to work the entire week, the connection dropped almost every day, but who rents this house for working the entire week???
