The lake was beautiful and only a short walk from the house. The listing was as advertised and Gil was very helpful in his recommendations of what to do in the area.

Clean and spacious home. Kitchen was bigger than expected. Nice deck as well. Newly rebuilt dock so have own area in water. Use of the fishing boat was nice as well. Beautiful lake. Overall nice place to stay. To clarify a few things: the house is not on the water but has access to it. The room in the basement is the basement itself so do not be surprised by that. Gil was very nice and checked in with us as he does live next door. I would stay here again.
