Great relaxing get-away

We absolutely loved the house and the location. We both needed to relax and unwind and The Resting Place was perfect for us. We felt very blessed to have the chance to be there for a few days. The house is excellent and well stocked. Sitting on a small quiet lake was so peaceful. We are were close enough to Gaylord or other places to get out when we wanted to but be "away" at the house when we wanted to.

The place is extremely clean. Has some toys to help keep us occupied. The lake is pretty quiet, not a lot of motor traffic.
