Stunning property inside & out

This beautiful lakeside cabin has it all. It is beautifully & tastefully decorated with upgraded finishes. The kitchen is well stocked, organized and spacious. The bed was very comfortable and bathroom well stocked also. I don't believe I have every stayed in a more clean space which made it all that more inviting. It was impeccable. The lake views are stunning and easily enjoyed on the very large deck or right at the waterfront. The lake was clean and not overly busy; just enough fun being had to know you are in lake country! The neighborhood was very quiet. Host was very communicative and gracious enough to allow an earlier check in so as to avoid an incoming storm. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property; it was exactly what I was looking for!

Great getaway!

My family and I had an excellent stay. Everything was clean and organized. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you could possibly need and had a lot of counter space. The bathroom had lots of towels and the makeup washcloths were a nice touch. Beds were comfy and plenty of extra pillows. The stairs up to the loft are very steep and definitely not suitable for younger kids or those with mobility issues. My 4 year old got them figured out but he had to go very slow. There were lots of games for all ages and the foosball table was fun. The boat launch is close by and the dock was easy to tie up to. We did some swimming off the dock in the more sandy areas and my 4 year old had a blast. Quiet neighborhood- even on a holiday weekend. We loved how much outdoor seating there was between the deck, patio, and both firepits- lots of options to enjoy the beautiful lake view! We would totally stay here again!

So glad we picked this one!

The property is both comfortable and beautiful. The views of the lake were a highlight! It has almost anything you’d need if traveling from much out of town. We enjoyed cooking and grilling, and a lot of time outside on the patios and dock. Swimming areas were clear and we had fun exploring around the dock. Neighbors were minimally visible but friendly. The areas in town had nice shopping and dining options without a long drive. Hosts were very communicative and kind. This place is so charming, don’t think twice! Thank you so much for your hospitality! We hope to be back!
