We had a gorgeous fall weekend to enjoy the lake. We had a campfire, cruised the lake, and played games on the sun porch. We hope to make it an annual trip!

Great location!

We wanted to get away for a few days and this location was great! It was just steps from the water, the house was well stocked and clean, and the owners graciously accommodated a last minute request when my in-laws needed a place to sleep for one night. If we had a boat, this location is the perfect place to spend some time on the water!

Cozy lakefront getaway

My husband and I met our son here for a relaxing weekend. We enjoyed meals and games and sunrises from the screened in porch and kayaks on the lake. The grill was perfect for cooking up some fresh corn from a local farm stand. We would recommend the place to others and hope to stay again in the future.

Cozy Retreat

We really enjoyed our weekend situated right on the lake with a boat slip just steps away. The cabin was furnished nicely with quality appliances dishes towels bedding etc. Our favorite part was the glassed in screened porch for meal’s & relaxing watching the lake activity. We hope to return.

Great stay with lake view

We found the place and the entry instructions easily. Stayed during a family event and was much better than staying in a hotel. The lake was across the narrow road and it was pretty quiet during our stay (March). The house had everything we needed and the cookware in the kitchen was better than expected. Had some board/card games to play. Didn't need to contact the owner but the instructions to get there and check out were clear.
