It was clean, quiet, and really enjoyable. I don’t recommend opening the sliding glass doors. They were really hard to close and lock back.

Great modern experience!

Very happy. The property was clean and modern. Very comfortable and stocked with kitchen utensils. If internet calling is needed, you may need to intitialize wifi calling, but i needed to get a cellular bar signal outside as well.

A Perfect Lake Weekend

Only one word "Perfect". We stayed here in October 2021 and only thing was the driveway being dirt and messy after a rain. Well it's now concrete, so stay there if you can, you won't be disappointed. Clean, well kept, and minutes from a launch ramp.

Really enjoyed the quiet, peaceful downtime in the cute cabin. No TV in living room meant more time doing things together like games and puzzles. More conversation! Would definitely stay again!
