Timing may vary from year to year, and we appreciate your understanding as we prioritize safety and facility care.
Interaction with Guests: As your host, I live nearby and am readily available if you need anything during your stay. My goal is to strike the perfect balance between being accessible and respecting your privacy.
You may occasionally see me parking my boat at the dock while visiting Ernie’s on Gull Lake, just a few doors down. I may stop by with a quick hello, or you might see me spending time with family who are also staying on the property. I aim to provide a sense of connection—without ever intruding on your space.
Rest assured, I'm here to ensure your stay is comfortable, smooth, and enjoyable. If you have any questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out. Your satisfaction and privacy are always my top priorities.

Nice facility—had all that we were expecting. Our dog, unfortunately, was not comfortable with other guests coming and going through door right next to our glass sliding door..

Perfect, simple getaway!
Property isnt fancy, but it is highly functional and the location is fantastic. Dircectly on Gull Lake. With a dock, fire pit and lots of outdoor seating. We grilled twice. And we had a blast at Ernies on Gull Lake (practically next door and established in 1917) with live music every night for all ages!
