Relaxing Girls Getaway
Great secluded getaway. Exceptionally furnished home with lake access. Beautiful property with lots of locations to sit and enjoy the lake, read a book, play yard games, fish, picnic or play in the lake. Very clean and spacious for large family gatherings. This was our 4th year staying and will definitely be renting again.

Amazing house
We had such a great time at your cabin! Our grandkids thought the spiral staircase was “fun” but tough to go down with a dog. We just walked around to get him inside. Everything was just as it looked online. Had plenty of dishes for our group so the dishwasher was a lifesaver. Grandkids caught fish off the dock so that was a big deal for them. We rented pontoon for a day and just floated in lake with grandkids jumping off pontoon and floating around. We would definitely love to come back again!! Thanks for a great family week!!

Perfect for our annual ladies weekend
Everything was as described in the listing. The owner was very quick to respond to all of our questions and was very helpful when we rented the pontoon. We would definitely book this property again!

Family vacation
The house worked great for our group. It was clean and well stocked. Joe was very helpful and responsive during our stay. The lake is small and not very busy which was great for us. The only disappointment was that the lake was green and full of seaweed by the dock, so we weren't able to swim at the shore. But we were able to rent a pontoon so that we could go to middle of the lake and swim off the boat. Overall, the stay was very good I would recommend this cabin.

Plenty of space for inside & out for 10 of us. Joe was very nice and welcoming. I loved the beautiful lake view and landscaped flowers. We rented the boat and it worked great. Fire pit area was awesome. We will vacation at the Buttercup again.
