We had an incredible time at Nick's Retreat! The 17 of us were able to fit comfortably and the entire property is very well kept. The lake down just down the road was super clean and was a great place to spend the day. Jim the neighbor was incredibly kind and helpful, and Nick is awesome and very easy to deal with in getting everything set up! Would recommend the place to anyone!
