Awesome Stay!

This property was great! The lake view was beautiful and every thing inside the house looked exactly like the pictures. Communication with the owner was very efficient when I had questions. Very spacious, very comfortable, and worth the price!

Nice family place with a few issues

Great house for a group of 7 to12 people plenty of things to do with kiaks and the lake in the back yard. Upstairs bathroom was on the tiny side but functional. Needs to have bath mats in both bathrooms. We did have an issue with a rodent getting inside the house but the host was very responsive with trying to get it delt with.
