Lake House

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy home by the lake. The setting was peaceful and serene—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The house was well-equipped, and had a charming feel that made it feel like a true escape from the everyday. . I loved waking up to the view of the lake in the morning. The entire home was so neat and clean. Check in/check out was super easy. Everything was as described and even better in person. We can’t wait to stay again!

We rented the right half of house. Property was clean and right on the lake with hiking trails and boat launch just around each corner. Would definitely stay here again. Only downfall is nearby train goes through often and location is about 30 minutes from shopping and restaurants. Parking at house is only for one small car, others must park in a lot about two houses down the road.

Great accommodations. Great view of the river. The train that someone mentioned in a previous review? Not even remotely a bother - kinda of cool! Home away from home, stayed here about 21 days. Will stay here again for sure.
