Nice property, great view, comfortable beds, good air conditioner, however there was a hole in the screen door to the patio letting in flies. You don't have to strip the beds, which is nice. It would have been nice to have a couple kayaks or paddle boards because the lake doesn't allow you to bring your own. I would like to rent a property that has a dock and some water craft. It's hard to be so close to such a beautiful lake and have almost no access. But then again we had a dog with us or else we could have gone to Nixon beach. There is also a nice trail but you have to walk as this property does not have bikes registered to it.

Beautiful View

The view is STUNNING. We stayed for a week and a half and had everything we needed. Cooking utensils, cleaning products, laundry detergent, garbage bags, etc. The house was fully stocked which was an excellent surprise. Only thing we needed to truly bring was personal toiletries. Our two boys (3 and 5) LOVED the trundle bed upstairs and thought it was so fun to sleep together. My husband and I slept in one of the downstairs rooms and had enough room for a pack-n-play for our infant to sleep with us. The basement seems like it's under construction so you can walk to the fire pit from the walk out basement. We cannot wait to come back and stay again!

not too shabby

this was my first expereince with a b&b...generally, it exceeded my expectations...kitchen was very well appointed...bed was too small for me...I am 6'-4", tho...TV was generally useless...but I am not a TV lover by any stretch...we probably should have rented a 4 bdrm house instead of this 3 bdrm house...I am happy with the experience...thank you
