Family Christmas!
We needed a place that could meet all of our needs for a Christmas stay. This place was exactly what we were looking for; close to family, large enough to accomodate 4 couples two babies, and our family pets. It was clean, and had all the amenities you need. The host was personable, easy to contact and very quick to respond.

Perfect!!
This property was just as pictured! The cabin was clean and we had everything we could need. If you are going with family and young kids it is perfect!! The lake is shallow by the cabin, not weedy or rocky and has a great beach for the kids to play. The cabin was stocked with beach toys, lake toys and baby items. We also enjoyed the addition of the hot tub. I would definitely recommend and would come back again!

Beautiful Lakeside Retreat
We stayed here over the 4th of July and had an amazing time. The beach area was perfection! A sandy beach with shallow water for all the little ones to play. And, we loved having two separate family spaces for when the days/nights got a little rainy. The property manager responded very quickly to any concerns to ensure our stay was perfect.
