Our stay on the lake

This home was all and more for our family getaway for relatives wedding. We enjoyed all the amenities they had, the paddle boards were a fav for our grown kids, we had a campfire one evening, our kids enjoyed the game room, the house was beautiful, beds very comfy, well stocked for anything we needed. The hosts were great people to talk to about anything. We hated to leave the quiet and peaceful lake.

Wonderful property!

This was such a great house to host our group of 10! We were all impressed by how beautiful the house is, even better than the pictures! So much space and lots of light. Kitchen and bathrooms were clean and well stocked. We spent most of the time by the water - so nice! Driveway is very steep but property is extremely well kept. Would recommend to anyone!

Wonderful property with so many amenities including fishing poles, a fire pit, kayaks, paddle boards, games, shuffle board, projector with surround sound, nice outdoor seating, fully stocked kitchen with many pans, spices, all the things. Love the grill attached to a perm propane line. EXTREMELY responsive hosts that were super helpful and got back to us right away with anything we asked of them. Our whole family had a great time. So much to do around the house as well. Very quiet and peaceful on the property itself.

Wonderful family vacation!

We had an amazing week at this beautiful home on the lake! Our party of 10 had plenty of space to spread out and the huge table allowed us all to sit down together for meals which was so nice. Wayne & Dana have really thought of everything with this rental, it’s obvious they put a lot of thought and care into making your stay the best! They were so great to communicate with as well. We loved sitting out on the back deck and the game room was a big hit with our sons and their girlfriends as well. Our only complaint is that we wish our vacation time was longer, the week just went too fast. We would absolutely love to stay here again in the future!
