This home was the PERFECT lakeside retreat we were looking for! The house was well appointed and very clean. Plenty of extras were made available (toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dishwashing, etc). The kitchen has everything you could possibly need, including a crockpot and waffle iron. Our favorite place was the screened in deck overlooking the lake. We enjoyed our morning coffee there and watched the ducks come and go. So peaceful! The dock has plenty of seating, the kayaks are easy to get to and use and there are plenty of fishing opportunities to be had. Joel and Jenn are very quick to respond to any questions you may have and truly enjoy opening their home to share with others. It's obvious in how they've taken care of their home and stocked it with extras like boardgames and game tables downstairs. We will definitely book again and cannot wait!

Family vacation

We used this property for a vacation with our adult children and their families. The location on the lake was ideal for swimming and kayaking for all ages. The boat dock was a nice place to hang out and was perfect for docking our own boat The house has separate entertainment areas suitable for different ages groups. We also used and enjoyed the nice fire pit. This place was ideal for our family!
