Christmas getaway
We loved this house, it was so cozy and we had some fires at night outside at the cute fire pit area. The boat launch was basically next to the house which made it so convenient. Communication with them was awesome, they even had the house decorated for Christmas which was perfect because we brought all of our gifts! We definitely will return. Thanks for the memories!!

Five stars!
This is probably the best kept place I’ve ever stayed. It was exceptionally clean and well stocked. Quiet neighborhood made for a peaceful visit. The driveway and neighborhood boat launch can be challenging if you’re bringing a larger bass boat, but with a number of other boat launches (including Waterfront) within minutes of the house that wasn’t a problem at all. There was even a place within walking distance to get firewood for the firepit. We would definitely stay again!
