Beautiful lake house

We had the best time at this house for our girls' weekend! We didn't leave the property the entire time. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and the beach area, as well as kayaking in the lake.

Birthday at the Lake House!

We booked this lake house to celebrate my daughters 18th birthday with friends and family. The house was exactly as described. Gina was extremely punctual with her communication and made the whole process so easy! The house is beautiful and so private. We felt like we had the lake to ourselves. Plenty of fun things to do for ages ranging 9 to 50!! We even had a doe and her fawn visit us two nights in a row!! Highly recommend!!

Lakefront getaway

Excellent experience. Property was exactly as pictured. It’s a great location for making memories. My grandkids were able to kayak, paddleboat and fish. The hot tub was also an added bonus that they enjoyed. Kids caught lots of fish during early morning and early evening hours. House was comfortable and clean. Will definitely be looking to go back.

Amazing weekend at the lake

We spent an amazing weekend at the lake in this beautiful house. The best part was the kayaking and swimming. The water in the lake was warm enough to swim in it even in the evening. I loved that the house is built on an acre property so there was privacy without neighbors around. The house is nicely prepared for gusts and very comfortable. Everybody was happy and rested when we were leaving. We plan to do rent it again soon. Thanks!
