Desirée T. Aug 15, 2023 12:30:22 AM
Summary: The cabin and clean and had everything we could hope for with a large group of friends and family. Although the cabin wasn’t right on the lake, it was an easy walk down to the water. The owners and staff were very friendly and accommodating.
Jessica K. Jul 31, 2023 12:54:29 PM
Summary: We had a great time! Although the house was not lakefront like it was listed, it didn't matter to us because we didn't utilize the beach area. It was just a short walk to get to the lake. There was plenty of space for our family of 12, although we wish there was more sitting area in the living room. We spent most of our time in the kitchen because there was lots of seating there. The pictures online do need to be updates to match the renovations that were done to the house. Its listed at 3 bathrooms, but there are only two so I am not sure where the 3rd one was. Its a great house for a large family! The kitchen was very well stocked for our family and we had plenty of space for all of our stuff!

Summary: We wanted to find a place to handle our family size of 15. I booked on line, I was able to go by and see property prior to renting & was happy with what I saw. Pictures are very accurate. Lake is a very short walk. My grand kids had a great time along with the rest of the family. The house is setup very nicely, Plenty of room for kids to spread out and play. Unfortunately it rain part of the time, But with how the house I set up with upstairs play area with plenty of tables & chairs, We were able to keep everyone entertained with good games. My older kids 35- 42 years old appreciated upstairs bar for their late night/early morning gathering without interrupting any ones sleep area. Overall a 10 for house & Yard, 7 on the lake area. Donna did a fabulous job on having the place clean for us 10 ++, My wife approved which always is a good start of Vacation. The grandkids already want us to do this again next year. Thanks Troy.

Summary: This was a perfect location for our family vacation. We had enough room for everyone, including all of us (14 adults & kids) being able to sit around the kitchen tables or picnic tables at the same time. The check in and check out process went very smooth, and Connie was very helpful in making sure we had everything we needed. Thank you for letting us stay at your property. We will definitely be back for another family vacation.

Summary: Perfect experience for our family Christmas gathering. The home was exceptional.
Sue T. Sep 29, 2021 12:07:51 AM
Summary: This property is NOT lakefront, we were quite surprised to discover this at check-in. You are about a block and half from the lake. We had brought our boats and kayaks expecting us to be on the lake and the “private” dock to be just for our use. It is in fact, shared by this property along with several other cabins and campers. All of the other guest buildings are between this property and the lake, with no real views of the lake from the house or the outdoor area. The house itself was large and beautiful and perfect for our family. It was very clean and well cared for. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you’d need to prepare meals and the cabinets are labeled so you can quickly find what you are looking for. While not lakefront or lake views, the outdoor space was also well stocked for use by a large group. With plenty of seating and picnic tables. We specifically are looking for places for our annual family trip to be lakefront, so we would not go back. But if that was not critical for your trip it is a beautiful stay. The manager was very responsive and helpful.

Summary: As advertised.
Aug 4, 2021 09:12:36 PM
Summary: Ample space for a family of 16 total people. Very clean, well equipped with dishes, silverware, Pots and pans, grill and paper products. Plenty of outside space for games And kids play area. Only drawback was the lake was very low this year. That’s not the property owners fault. Updated dock with plenty of space for boats. We would stay again if we’re ever in that area.
