"The lodge was perfect for our weeklong family get-together over the 4th of July holiday. A child gate we brought for the toddlers kept the main floor safe for their roaming. Minor maintenance issues were quickly handled or were not consequential for our stay. The view of the lake is as special as advertised and one side of the house faces uninterrupted forest (with a pleasant local hiking trail). The deck-patio was safe for the children and dogs and we ate many of our meals at the outside patio table. It's set for 18 (as is the inside dining table) and, with the awning, protected from the sun. Overall, it was a wonderful week for our family."
