Excellent place for a quite get away

The staff is friendly. Property very nice. They have many things to do. You can check out movies, games, and can rent canoes or kayaks. Great place to fish. Had a fish cleaning station. Indoor pool and hot tub, which is very clean and kept up. We had a bigger cabin for the family. Two twin beds in one room and a king in the other. Cabin came with house hold essentials. We loved the stay, wish it was longer.

The owners were nice and sweet enough to make a list of what we can do around the area and recommendation of restaurants nearby. The cabin we stayed in was perfect size for us as a family of three with a toddler. We enjoyed indoor pool and a cute little playground in the property. Definitely coming back.
