Loved our stay, Owner is very nice and helpful. Comfortable bed, cute cabin. Parking could be improved on and the steps to the water are not in the best condition, but overall it was amazing. Lake veiw is beautiful, swimming was great and the sunrise over the water was perfect.
Our stay was exactly as advertised and planned. Very cozy, warm, and John, owner, was very friendly and welcoming. We enjoy cabins that are small and rustic and this cabin meet all expectations. Highly recommend.
The property was clean and furnished as advertised, we had a very good time, and John was a great host. Weather was very nice and we were able to have a great time on the lake.
I very much enjoyed my stay. John was very helpful making sure I had what I needed. I’m hoping to come back when I can get out on the lake and do some fishing!!!!!
Easy access to the water, owner checked in, boat was clean and ready to go! Definitely rustic cabins, ours was small but clean Fish was plentiful! A lot of small mouth hooked
The cabin is rustic enjoyed the lake, swimming, hiking, I brought my boat motor and was able to put it on a rowboat enjoyed fishing we also rented a pontoon from the owner and he was very nice and helpful with the area. Stairs down to the lake could use some updating for better access for swimming.
Our cabin had the perfect rustic feel and a beautiful lake-front view. It was spotless when we got there. The property offers so much--swimming in clear, sandy water, roasting marshmallows over the firepit, and boating. The host was so hospitable and easy to work with. We are already looking to go back!
We had a great week. The lake is absolutely beautiful and boating and tubing was fantastic. John the owner of the cabins was very friendly and helpful.
This property is beautiful and the cabin itself was spotless upon arrival. John was very helpful and just a nice person to deal with. We loved our stay here and will definetly be back!
