Beautiful Home & Great Location!

Our group of 8 had such a wonderful time at this lovely home in Center City! It was a short drive from home at just an hour and the home was well appointed and just as described/pictured. Everyone was able to have their own space and we really enjoyed the beautiful kitchen and the fun lower level pool table. Even though our stay was in March, we were able to sit on the screen porch the afternoon/evening we arrived because it was 70 degrees! We had a fun time visiting boutique shops, an antique shop, brewery, and a fun bar/restaurant. Thank you for a wonderful weekend in your beautiful lake home!

Great family get together

This house worked great for our family to get together over the holiday weekend. The kids loved the bunk room with the big tv and we used all the gaming tables. Really appreciated the the extra towels and house layout. Nice beds and bedding. Kitchen is great for cooking. Extra stove top burners and large fridge with xl ice maker that kept up with our group. We will definitely be back. Thanks for the memories!!

Wonderful family or couples retreat

This is a very beautiful home. With 5 bedrooms was great in providing a retreat for my family while attending a local wedding . Enjoyed the paddle boards, fire pit area, grilling, pool table and some ping pong. Has a nice dock with clean area of water around dock. You need your own life jackets . Newer built property with the bunk bedroom having the electrical breaker trip when trying to use the fan switch. Also tripped the breaker using the microwave once. Was used often, only tripped once. No hair dryers as reported but local store not far away. Easily talked with host who was surprised that there was not one at least in the master bath. Grocery store also very close. One recommendation would be to have a screen or partition to pull in front if the fireplace that is a full view into the master bedroom from the main living room . Did have some spices and oils supplied for cooking. Coffee was also stocked along with espresso machine.
