Adorable Lake House

My friend and I wanted to get our families together like we’ve done before over Labor Day and Harlan Reservoir is the perfect place between KC and Denver. The house fit our families well. The kitchen is nicely organized and has lots of utensils, there’s plenty of couch space and the beds were comfortable.
