Upscale accommodation in the wilderness.

Very nice house. Modern amenities. We were very comfortable as was our grandchild. We have stayed in most the cabins over the last 20 years and this is by far the nicest one.

Wonderful Stay

This is probably the most comfortable short term rental we have ever stayed it. It is super clean and well appointed. The view of the lake is beautiful and the pool and lodge are close by. What made it special is the friendly owners who explained everything and anticipated our needs. For example there was a blackout due to a storm. It wasn't long before the were at the door with a flashlight and battery charger. Would recommend to anyone who needs a relaxing vacation.

The owner was very responsive when I had a question or problem. Very friendly. The cottage itself was a bit dated but Cris tells me they have a couple other ones that they are fixing up right now. They plan on using this one as their home and update it as well.

Reunion

House and neighborhood was nice and quiet. Only negative i have was one pool was nasty and not running. Which made it crowded. This needs to be fixed. Then a large crowd of people showed up on Saturday and we could get in the pool. This is NOT the house owners issue. They were really nice to deal with.
