Beautiful Home!

We booked this house due to a wedding in the area. It is a beautiful home, well maintained and extremely clean! The back of the house provides Great Lake views and a easy path down to the dock and gazebo. The furniture and bedding was great. Gas fireplace was a nice feature! The owners are great to work with. Excellent communication! Highly recommend this house! The location is very rural situated in a nice community.

Awesome hosts

The house was extremely well stocked and prepared. The owners were quick and awesome at communicating before during and at check out….Even sending us information on restaurants events in the area And other tidbits. We greatly appreciate all they did to make our stay so wonderful. The kids loved fishing off the dock with Papa and sliding down sliding rock. I loved sitting on the gazebo or screened in porch admiring the rain or reading a good book.

Super clean, beautiful, enjoyable home by the lake. Carolyn and Dean were very reachable and helpful. Will be great if the rental can include kayaks/pontoon boat for short term guests to enjoy.
