Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Pictures do not do this propety justice! Also, there is a 3rd bathroom. It had everything we needed, and it was very clean. The beach area was perfect for our family. We took the boat out and ended the evening at the fireplace with s'mores. The view from the deck was amazing! We all loved sitting on the rockers and looking out at the lake. During my stay, I had a few questions and they responded withon minuets. I cannot say enough about this property, we were.sad to leave!!!
