This is a beautiful property with privacy from the neighbors. We really enjoyed our stay at the house. The house was very clean and everything was in great working condition. I would highly recommend staying at this property. We used it for a work retreat. The main living room was perfect for our work sessions during the day. The living room couch was huge and very comfortable to sit on while we collaborated on our work projects. Thank you for being a great host!

Beautiful Property

This property was an absolute gem from the moment we stepped in! Beautiful design, stunning details, and a layout that makes the most of every square foot. It’s rare to find a home that blends style and functionality so seamlessly, but this one nailed it. What made the experience even better? The owners were fantastic to work with—flexible, communicative, and truly invested in making sure everything went smoothly. It’s the kind of partnership that makes the process enjoyable from start to finish. If you’re looking for a property that’s not just a house, but a home with heart, we can’t recommend this one enough

Loved it!

Beautiful property, plenty of space for everyone. We loved the outdoor patio and deck which gave us a great view of the lake. The tram is awesome, so nice not to have to lug coolers and everything down a large flight of steps to get to the dock. Of note, we did rent a boat during our stay however multiple local rental companies expressed concern about leaving a boat overnight at the dock as there is potential for the boat to bang up against the dock and get damaged. This did not prevent the companies from renting to us, just a risk of additional fees if the boat were to be damaged. This would not prevent us from renting this beautiful home again but might be important for some people to know.
