Wonderful place to stay!!!

We loved staying here! There are so many nice outdoor areas to enjoy .... the porch is so cozy, the beach is wonderful - especially for our dog, and sitting on the dock first thing in the morning having coffee was so relaxing. Loved all the outdoor string lights at night and having a fire in the fire pit!

Lake vacation

Truly enjoyed our stay. Mother and daughter trip. Fabulous location, very clean and excellent amenities! The sandy beach area was a huge plus. Easy to get boat, paddle boards and kayaks in and out of the water. Communication was responsive and quick. Highly recommend this property.

Relaxing vacation

Loved having a last minute vacation (with our 4-legged child) where we could fish, make a fire, grill, go boating if we wanted to, etc. Was a fun property with lots of options for activities. Would like to visit again.

Wonderful

We had such an amazing stay at the cabin. The private beach with the paddle boards and floats was so relaxing and very quiet. Had two young kids that enjoyed the swing and did marshmallows around the fire a couple of nights. In the last morning woke up early and there was a little deer in the front yard. Thoroughly enjoyed our trip and will definitely be returning.

Beautiful and serene

We stayed over Labor Day weekend and absolutely LOVED this property. As described the cabin is small but very cozy! Just perfect for the 2 of us and our dogs. Anything you need is provided. I have to say the private beach is one of a kind. All kinds of water toys and I used the paddle boards for the very first time. We will definitely be back’ Thank you Kimberly for everything

This place is exceptional!!

Loved, loved, loved this cabin! The view from the property is absolutely beautiful! The outdoor space is second to none. We got to meet Kimberly when we arrived and she was just lovely. We were able to enjoy the outdoors even during the rain with the lovely covered front porch. The beach area was a great place to play and to relax in the shade. There is too much to say, but you will not be disappointed! This is a great place for a getaway for 2. Definitely recommend!

Couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful and perfect spot for a weekend retreat with my dog. We were both in heaven. Very comfortable and cozy cabin and spectacular outdoor spaces with gorgeous views of the lake. Great places to explore in the neighborhood and great hikes nearby.
