We had a lot of rain but it was great to be right on the lake and also great to have usage of the row boat and kayaks for fishing (mostly small mouth bass)...I wouldn't consider this lake totally ideal for small children/swimming but it was definitely clean and quiet and a lot of that could have had to do with the rainy weather. the grounds were immaculate and you can tell there is pride of ownership from the beautifully manicured lawn and flowers to the clean interior. The second floor was challenging to sleep in as you could not stand and it got a little hot up there and felt crowded so I could see where that might not be ideal for some people looking for more space.... I would consider it more of a loft. overall we had fun, there was a lot to do in the area (Chucksters, antiquing, brewery, restaurants, etc) and we saw brilliant 4th of July fireworks. Hosts were on onsite but you wouldn't even know with the way the house was set up up so that was zero issue they were really respectful of privacy and kind. I saw a review about the noise/highway and wanted to note that it was definitely not a big deal and the house was not on the main road.... felt private enough.
Thanks for having us!!!!!
