Perfection

I stayed at the property the night before and after my wedding. I needed a night with my best friend the night before and with my husband the night of. It was perfect and not far from our wedding venue.

Wonderful property

We got married down the road from here at Big Ridge so we rented this place for my bridesmaids and I to get ready at and somewhere for my new husband and I to stay on the wedding night. This place exceeded our expectations with cleanliness and just the fact that the host thought of everything. Anything we could have needed was there.

Nice home base

Nestled in a wooded cove very near the marina and all the lake action, this updated cabin is perfect for 2 adults. The sofa bed was functional and comfortable for young guests. No room for more than 2 to sit for meals however. Be prepared for a very windy road but quiet and seclusion await you at the end. All things considered, it was a very nice stay.

Bar opening

Home was super cute and updated. Homeowner supplied most things needed tfor a short stay. The treat left fou us was very nice. House was clean except for tbe floor throughout. Very sticky and in need of a good mopping. Also, AC made the house damp and bedding a little wet.

This is a very remote place to access. Is really great for a getaway, but not easily walked from to anyplace. It is very nice and convenient to lake access if you drive a few minutes in any direction, but is not near the lake per se. Overall a good experience and we will go back.
