Beautiful home and property
Great stay enjoyed by all (including a 12 yo girl!)
Lake is beautiful and we caught a wide variety of fish.
Pontoon available for rent, as well as free new kayaks and SUPs. Home is clean and very well stocked upon arrival. Lots to do in the area. We all loved it!
Owner and property manager also both top notch
