Great Lake house with so many water toys!
We had a great time, the cabin was right on the water as promised and the lake was beautiful. There were so many water toys for all of us including a kayak, canoe, huge floating mats and more. Diana is a wonderful host and we definitely recommend her and her charming lake house!

Amazing Lake House!!
Everything about our stay was absolutely wonderful! Diana was a fantastic host who was super quick at communicating with us and very helpful! The lake house was in a lovely and peaceful location. There was so much provided for us to use, which meant our whole family thoroughly enjoyed our time on the lake. The house itself was extremely clean and very well stocked, it truly had everything we needed for our stay! It's a beautiful and quiet spot that is perfect for relaxing or playing on the lake. We never wanted to leave and hope to stay longer next year!
