My college friends and I had a very cozy weekend at this property. We enjoyed the indoor fireplace while it snowed. The hot tub was a great way to warm up on a cold winter day with a great view of the frozen lake. Margaret was very easy to communicate with before and during our stay. Would definitely stay here again.
