The lake house was exactly what we wanted. Everything was clean and anything you can think of that you need the owners made available to you. The communication with the owners was wonderful as I had to reach out prior to booking since my husband was handicapped. Maria was wonderful. We even lucked out and were able to check in early. The lake views were stunning. Absolutely loved our stay and hope to be back in the future.

Quick weekend on the lake

Great little lake house that fit our family of 4 for a quick weekend. Nicely remodeled. Owner was very quick to respond to questions and accommodate a couple requests for us. The best part was hanging out on the deck and enjoying the lake view and breeze with extended family who were staying at a hotel.
