Beautiful home for a large group who love being on the lake

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is perfect for a group of 8-10 people. There is enough space and amenities for everyone to be comfortable. Our group esp likes the access to the water (fishing and kayaking), the ability to go for walks "in the woods", and the well outfitted kitchen.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family enjoyed this cabin so much for our spring break! It is roomy, well-appointed, has everything you need, and is set in a beautiful location that is also close to so many things. We loved every second there. The kids loved the basement for games and movies. The adults loved the well-stocked kitchen and the amount of space for everyone, even on a rainy day. 5 stars, for sure. We would gladly stay there again! I will also add that the management company was incredibly helpful with any questions I had. I have rented many vacation spaces, and this management company was top-notch.

The perfect hideaway!

The property was beautiful and clean. It had everything for a perfect "girl's" getaway. In the main living area, each person had their own recliner, a fireplace, and a beautiful view. This was our primary hangout spot. The beds were comfy and we each had our own space to spread out do to the layout and size of home. We are planning to come back!

Staff Retreat

I took several of my staff on a short team building retreat. I chose this location as it was remote enough for us to be engaged in activities with each other, yet close enough to local resources to be able to enjoy what the community has to offer as well. The property is beautiful and well maintained. We felt pampered with all the amenities. I honestly do not believe that any detail was missed. I would definitely stay here again. Wonderful job!!

Private Family Location

This property was even better than I expected. It was a well-furnished, clean home with everything our family of 9 needed. Perfect lake for kayaking and fishing. We appreciated the quieter location away from the busy touristy areas. At the same time, it was an easy trip to nearby spots for groceries, shopping, and exploring. Beautiful sunsets and campfires. We would have wished for more seating and some shade down by the dock. We will definitely be booking again!
