Private and Spacious
We were pleased with the secluded wooded lot and cove. Back porch, basement, and boat dock all serve as great places to gather with your group to enjoy time together. Other than a couple old deck boards that can easily be remedied, this property served us well and allowed us to enjoy time together both at the property and on the lake. Thanks!

Annual extended family vacation
The weather was perfect which allowed us to spend much of our time in and on the lake. The kitchen was adequately equipped, as we cooked all of our meals in the house. Must mention that kitchen linens were bare minimums. Bathrooms were reasonably clean, and unlike kitchen linens, bath towels were stellar! Outside needs some love. There are many rotting boards on the dock and walk way to it. A serious safety hazard.

Cabin-like feel
Property was absolutely great for our large group. There was enough space for the kids and adults to have their own separate areas and still not bother each other. Lake was a nice stair hike down, but great dock for fishing and relaxing. Overall, great property.
