Good location…only five minutes to get to all the fun in Old Forge! Great area for hiking, water sports, going out to eat, and shopping. The house was clean, and there was plenty of space for all 8 of us. Really liked the finished basement bonus area and being able to do laundry. There’s a short walk to the shore from the house that could be challenging for someone with mobility issues due to the tree roots on the path. But the path is pretty and First Lake is lovely. The shore is sandy and a nice place to read.

Everything was nice, the beds whoever were not comfortable

The only things that was a disappointing was the beds. Very hard or old beds that caved in the middle.
