Great place to spend Christmas!
This property was all we could ask for in a place for 5 of us to spend Christmas. The property was well described online. It was very clean and had all the amenities we needed. It even had a small Christmas tree and a board on the kitchen counter stating Merry Christmas. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and appliances. The furniture was comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Relaxing home with many outdoor options
The home was spacious and the owners thought of everything you would need for a stay. The outdoor deck and firepit are an added bonus. Although the lake is a bit low at the moment it was a wonderful outdoor view. comfy beds, living room and local places to visit if you desire or just hang around the home with corners for each person to read, do a puzzle, watch a show or nap..
