Great cabin!

Everything was great. The only thing the group agreed that would be beneficial is a ceiling fan on the beautiful deck. Thank you for a wonderful place for our ladies’ retreat.

Relaxing Weekend Away

Amazing place to stay for the weekend! Great porch to hangout on and eat meals between trips to the dock and playing in the lake. Brought all our groceries with us and didn’t leave the whole weekend! It was a very relaxing and restorative weekend for our family.

Perfect location with great view

We have rented 4 different houses on this lake and each house had benefits but this one was our favorite. The location was great. Slope to lake incredible. My 82 year old dad loved all the details in the house. My kids and I loved the deck.

Perfect Vacation

We had a wonderful stay at this lake house. Everything was clean, comfortable, and very accommodating. We enjoyed swimming on the dock, dinner around the large upstairs patio table and had the most perfect spot to see the sunset. Plenty of space for 2-3 families and exceeded our expectations of how nice, still being pet friendly. Looking forward to many future trips back at this spot!

Memorial Day Weekend

We had a wonderful time here, the cabin was really cute and plenty of space for our family and dogs. The porch was wonderful to sit out on and have morning coffee, looking at the lake. The dock was great to swim from, and we brought our 20' boat as well - the boat ramp is a bit of a drive though, so just plan for that. Overall we had a wonderful weekend.

Lake Daze was a great place to call home for the Memorial Day weekend. Very clean and well kept. The appliances worked well and was stocked with cookware to accommodate our group. Beds were comfortable for everyone. The dock and swim area were wonderful and we had a fantastic time. 5 star***** stay and recommend to anyone looking to hideaway for a little!!!

Relaxing at it’s best

My family and my brother’s family enjoyed this house so much. There were a total of 7 people and we never felt cramped. The lake is one of the cleanest and clearest I have ever seen. Swimming off the dock or rocks on the shore was amazing. We would definitely come back.

House was quaint and cozy. Very relaxing. The deck is magnificent! A little more furniture on the deck could make it even better. We will definitely be going back. The dogs had a ball. Boat dock is great. It was easy to get from boat ramp to house.
