Amazing stay
We came from Washington State to visit my sister for her wedding. Overall, we needed the space and it fit perfectly. For our big family, we enjoyed the Lake house so much. Made many memories, the kids loved it. And my wife did to all my family enjoyed it. I will definitely come back to this place again. Love the wildlife out here, too.

Nice vacation property!
The property is very nice and well appointed and provided enough space for 5 adults and 4 boys under 10. Kristi was a great host and having the kayaks, canoe and paddle board were an added benefit for water play. It was great to have a dock for our boat and the shaded yard provided plenty of space for active boys. Thank you Kristi!

Enjoyable stay!
The house worked out well for us to stay for the Thanksgiving holiday! We had plenty of sleeping arrangements and plenty of living space. The host was helpful and responsive when we had any questions. Internet at the house was slow and cell reception was non-existent for us but it was a great opportunity to disconnect for several days that we might not have done otherwise. We would definitely stay here again!

The Perfect Retreat!
This beautifully updated lake house accommodated our team of 5 easily. The views from the deck are fantastic. Watching the ducks, turtles, and fish jumping was an added bonus. Even in July, the mornings were cool and the deck was a comfortable place for coffee. Plenty of seating for all of us outside and in! The kitchen was fully stocked with all items we needed for meal prep. Would definitely go back!

Fun Weekend Get Away!
We had a great stay that included hanging out on the beautiful deck, sunsets, s’mores and fishing. The kitchen was well stocked so cooking was easy. We were told to bring supplies because there is not a grocery store nearby so we were prepared. Kristy and Lauren were both great and easy to reach. We would definitely come again!

Very nice house with a great location on the lake. The kayaks and canoe provided were much appreciated by my family and were used every day. The house is right on the lake with a perfect view of the sunset. We also enjoyed fishing from the dock and relaxing in the sling chairs on the dock.
