Weeks before our scheduled stay we took a trip to check out the property and the gravel road going to the neighborhood was awful, full of deep, washed out holes we drove in the ditch to get there, GPS was incorrect taking us to the wrong street, the cabin was old and not well maintained, the pond was so overgrown with weeds that you could not fish in it, it was NOTHING like the photos!!! DISSAPPOINTING!!

Loved our stay! Highly Recommend!
Our kids of 12 years old have been friends since elementary so we decided to get all three families together for the first time and go on a vacation. The 12 year olds fished, rode their bikes all over, played in the game room and hung out in the hot tub! All families had their separate rooms with bathrooms and we had the best time sitting out on the deck by the pond laughing!

Perfect getaway
Perfect size for us, our 3 daughters and 2 sons with their spouses and children. We spent three days and never left the cabin. We fished, walked, played games.
