"The Refuge" was beautiful and comfortable with plenty of open space for gathering. The deck areas were quite nice as well. The kitchen was well supplied with cooking implements as well as dishes, cups, glasses, and silverware. Plenty for larger groups. We thought the bedrooms were all comfortable and bathrooms were clean (except for cobwebs/spiderwebs -but that happens). Location-wise, the house does not have direct access to the lake (it is high above it) but you can drive to a couple options to launch a kayak. We used the community pool a lot and it was great. It's a hilly neighborhood - great if you love to walk/run and get your heartrate up! Overall, a very nice house and we enjoyed our stay.
