Bucket List Lake

I have been battling ALS ( Lou Gehrig’s disease) for 7 years. I’m trying to fish every major lake here on the East Coast. Love the experience and enjoyed the lake house. Dan was AWESOME and I’d recommend anyone to stay at their home. It’s love and ran by some amazing folks. Thank You

Great location

We really enjoyed our stay in Chapin. The hosts were easy to converse with and quick to respond with inquiries. The house we stayed in is located on same property as the hosts but not at all intrusive. The space is well appointed, spacious and very clean. The bed was comfy which is a must for us. We hope to return when the weather is warmer! Thank you for making our stay delightful.
