Lake House Vacation
Our family had an amazing time staying on this property. The home is gorgeous and the dock spectacular! Ample space for a boat. We used the pedal boat, paddle boards and relaxed in the hammock swings. Loved those! The game room was a hit! Great to have when traveling with 12 year olds and teens.we absolutely loved this Lake House. The views were incredible. Hope to stay again next year!!
