Emerald Lake is very well kept. Nice landscaping and neat appearance. A beautiful, quiet, relaxing place. Very clean inside and out. It was just secluded enough for us, yet less than 10 minutes from Hwy 276 and a couple of small restaurants and a coffee shop. It was also just 10 minutes to Dupont State Forest for hiking. The Sassy Goose pavilion/shelter was a nice touch with bocci ball, cornhole, etc. Really great place to relax. I hope we're able to come back!
