Exceptional

Very accommodating. Kayaks and canoes were available along with fire pit and firewood. Fits 14 of us really well. Quiet place to relax on the lake with beach front access. Hosts were very kind and ready and available when you need help.
Clean, well planned, very nicely furnished. Dan was a wonderful host. Lots of helpful little extras -salt and pepper, coffee filters, hand soap and dish soap, gas grills. The covered boat lifts were a big plus.
This place has everything you possibly would need and more! Owners were responsive and great with any questions or concerns we may have had. It was the perfect choice for our family, everyone had an awesome time even with having rain one day. Great cabin and owners!

Had a Blast
Had an absolute blast! The property was well maintained, the lake was absolutely beautiful, and we caught a bunch of fish! I'd highly recommend this place for a large family to gather.

Home away from Home
Very Pleased with the stay.
The cabin was perfect for our group. Plenty of living space and rooms to accommodate everyone.
The resort staff were fun, offering activities for the kids and took the time to get to know us.
The water on the lake is extremely clear and the beach perfect for lounging.
Will definitely come back.

About the host
Hosted by Karen Scholz
Karen & Dan Scholz originally purchased this property as part of Beacon Shores Resort. We ran the resort for 20 years, and now we have sold off part of the property and plan to simplify our lives offering this rental unit. Note that an option exists to rent half of the building (4 bedroom townhome) if desired (and if available). If you rent half of the unit, note that another group may rent the other half. Check our face book and web page for additional photos and details. We just completed a major remodel of the building to make it more comfortable for groups and replaced all of the beds with new log beds.
Why they chose this property
This property is totally unique in that you get many of the extras of a resort... yet you have the quiet privacy of a VRBO lake home rental... as the resort is now closed. It is a perfect balance. We get awesome sunsets, have a nice beach & tanning area plus two playgrounds. We have a fish cleaning area, so one less thing to worry about. Also winter access to the lake - so year round options exist.
