We enjoyed the stay

The property was clean and had an amazing view of the lake. The lake is a walk up and down a steep hill. We enjoyed the hot tub. We stayed on the fourth of July and loved the fireworks from the porch and hot tub area!

Weekend Stay

We had a fun weekend at the overlook. It had a nice view and we also got a few inches of snow. The cabin is arranged very nicely. There is plenty of room for six people. This is a great place for two couples. Although I was turned off by the abrupt communication from the owners at first, the check in process is easy. Please note that the only way into the home is a set of steep stairs. Consider this if you have an older person coming with you. Also, the bedrooms are cold at night when the doors are shut even though the thermostat is at 75. For shopping or your personal needs, we brought everything with us, but there is a dollar general 15 minutes the house, and a drive into town for a grocery store, fast food, Walgreens, and a few small shops. It is 20 to 30 minutes, depending on your vehicle on the weather. The drive was pretty in the snow. I recommend a four-wheel-drive vehicle.
