Family Reunion

Stayed here with my husband's family, including our 3 small kids. The location was perfect- so much to do. We all loved the paddle boards and kayaks on the beautiful lake. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and we loved sitting out on the deck. Also close to many local attractions for easy day trips! It was really a perfect getaway!

Great Place!

Host was super responsive. House was clean and well equipped. There was so much to do for all generations, that we were able to stay on the property.

Beautiful lakefront home

Perfect for our family vacation with multiple young children. The house was beautiful, clean, and had everything we needed to enjoy the week. The kids loved direct access to the lake to swim and fish. The host was very responsive to our questions- when one of the appliances was not working as expected, she had a repair man out the next day to fix it. Our whole family loved this home and we would definitely stay here again.
