We had a wonderful stay here with our children and grandchildren. The grandchildren really enjoyed fishing and kayaking around the lake. We could easily watch them from the outdoor decks and the views of the countryside are stunning. The sleeping accommodations were plentiful, and we are looking forward to coming back next year!

Only complaint was there could have been more attention to the cleaning. There was also a cat that seemed to kinda live there. Otherwise it was great for our occasion and the setting was very enjoyable.

We had a great stay. Very clean property, full of amenities, and an amazing view. It was a wonderful retreat, and the property owner was very responsive and easy to interact with. We will definitely recommend this place to others and consider staying here again!
