The house was perfect for our three families. It had various areas for lounging both inside and outside. The lake itself was very calm and quite sleepy for mid-July. It was heavenly. I enjoyed morning kayaks listening to my audible book. When it came to the kids, we loved that the water was shallow beyond the dock. It definitely made water play feel safer while the adults chatted away. When the kids went out in the kayaks and small boats, we, of course, had them wear jackets. We brought a few smaller ones since we read the property only had adult-sized jackets. The week was spent with the windows open. A lovely breeze blew in each day. Since it's a nicely shaded property, the temperature stayed cool both day and night. We had a couple of issues with a clogged sink and dislocated shower head from the group before us. The management company did send a plumber. We were pleased with the timeliness. STAY! You won't regret it!
