Perfect Location

This was a great location for our weekend at the lake. It was very easy walking to the lake. The apartment was in a quiet neighborhood. It was very easy to access and was very clean. It's a small place, but plenty of room for two people. We had a wonderful time.

Great stay!

We had a great time staying here at Ed’s place! He was right there through text every time we needed! It was a very short walk to the beach and loved the privacy of the fire pit! It was very clean and a true testament when I have twins babies who are crawling everywhere! No dirty knees at all lol. We will plan to stay again in the future!

Carriage House

We enjoyed our stay in the carriage house. It was clean and well equipped with all the basics. We were in the area for the Burning Foot Festival, so we only spent mornings and evenings at the house. We never had to go to the store to get shampoo, soap, coffee, wood for a fire. It was all provided for us at the carriage house. It was within walking distance to the beach and had an awesome private fire pit and patio. Morning coffee time was spent watching the deer walk by (about 10 feet away). We would definitely go back.
