Beautiful home and scenery!

House is in a great location. Beautiful yard and home. Very well stocked. We would absolutely go back again and try to enjoy it more as we were there for our daughter’s wedding and didn’t get to be there as much as we would have liked. The views were spectacular!

Amazing!

We had the best time at our stay here! The house was spotless, the location is incredible, and the home has a very calm, peaceful feel to it that made my husband and I feel right at home. The kitchen is well stocked with all you need. We loved sitting on the beach and fishing off the docks, the landscaping is gorgeous; I really cannot say enough about this place. We are planning to bring our kids back! Best VBRO rental we’ve ever stayed in!

Dream vacation

This lake house was a dream come true! It was absolutely beautiful. Gorgeous views amazing outside areas and the inside of the house was very comfortable. It was well stocked with all items you would need and very clean. The dock area was our favorite, plenty of seating areas, and it was fun to take the paddleboard and paddle boat out for a spin. We made wonderful memories at this house and will definitely be coming back! we would buy this house if we could!
