Very clean and nice. We rented the whole property and were able to fit 20. The beds in the cabins are small and the road is a bit noisy in the evening but all in all very nice place. Owners are very responsive throughout the stay.

Nice Set-up for Families

With four separate living quarters, this was the perfect spot for our extended family. Privacy when you wanted it, plus lots of nice gathering spaces - Patios, Lodge Dining Area, and Lodge Great Room - for when we wanted to get everyone together. The cottages are situated with a nice view of the lake, and having having the public beach right across the road was nice. And speaking of. . . very minimal noise from road traffic at night, especially inside the buildings. We enjoyed our stay!
