Amazing home on the lake. Whole family enjoyed our stay. Easy check in and check out, thoughtful design and decor. Comfortable rooms and bathrooms with heated floors. Large kitchen and the amenities were as described. Snowed while we were there and the views were amazing. Freshly fallen snow, mug of hot chocolate with the view of the lake from the floor to ceiling windows, will be a great memory to look back on over the years.

Our family vacation was all I expected and then some. Our hostess was amazing. The home was perfectly situation with every amenity at our fingertips. We were able to bring in our boat, use the paddle boat and available kayak, as well as an amazing hot tub. It was a fabulous vacation for three generations of my family!
