Girls get away

Listing doesn't say there's alot of steps. We would of never booked for that reason. Also didn't say the area is a shared area with other people. Not enough blankets etc. Best part was the hot tub.

Lake life

The host, Christine, was great. She takes pride in all the hard work she’s out into making it their perfect getaway, and it did not disappoint. The house was equipped with everything you need. GREAT property, perfect location for a relaxing break from reality. Brought our 2 Goldens and they absolutely LOVED all the outdoors accessibility.
