"The location, amenities, and layout of the Lake House were perfect for my family of 6 adults. Host was very responsive to any questions. The house was very clean and well stocked when we arrived. I appreciated the welcome card and bottle of wine. It was very close to a lot of wineries, hiking trails, and waterfalls that we enjoyed. We also thoroughly enjoyed our time at the house playing games, pool, and ping pong, and hanging out on the deck and the dock. It was a memorable trip and we’d definitely go back again."
