Weekend Getaway
Loved the character of the house and the location is great — direct walking/golf cart path to the water. Our two dogs loved the yard and being able to swim. We saw lots of deer in the mornings and evening. Sunrises/sunsets were amazing. House was clean and comfortable! Thanks for sharing!

Unique, peaceful, private, and fun
Our stay at the lakefront cottage was unforgettable and awesome. Mike, the host, was very friendly and let us use his golf-cart and kayaks. Having our own lake beach access and lots of shady green space made this stay amazing. We would love to stay here again sometime and will tell our friends about it. A great spot!

2 night stay
We had a wonderful time. The property and house were very well maintained and really clean. Everything we needed was there, dishes, grill, coffee maker, etc. Our favorite part was how quiet and peaceful it was sitting outside on the porch area or down by the water. Owner is an extremely nice guy and seems to go out of his way to welcome guest and make sure they enjoy their stay.

The stone lake house.
Absolutely beautiful, unique and peaceful. I really the picture album of the property with the work that was done to the house. Mike greeted us upon arrival showed us everything about the house and property. We had a couple of friends visit and they were so impressed they both said they wanted to rent it in the future.
