Beautiful house in a quiet location. The owners were extremely prompt with all communication. Everything was exactly as described, they even had printouts around the house on how to operate different things. We would definitely stay there again!

Really cute house and well kept, clean.We had a great time and the host was responsive throughout our stay. The only thing to note, is that we kinda thought that the house was right on the lake. It's not. It's across the street from the lake and access is only available 1-2 min walk down the road through a neighborhood lake access. You don't really have lake views except through the window of the house.
