This home and property were amazing! My mother in law and I couldn’t find dirt in the house if we tried. Nothing was an afterthought. Everything was provided with the direct intent to make us feel at home, and we did!

What a magnificent and gorgeous retreat right in the lake. The swimming and boating were fabulous off of the wonderful dock. The house is extremely well equipped with everything anyone could ever want for a dream vacation. Thank you—we WILL be returning!!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2024
Everything about our stay exceeded expectations. House is lovely and close to the water with stunning views of the lake. The lake and surrounding area was so quiet all you could hear was the wind and the birds…including loons. Owners were helpful and easy to reach. Highly recommend!
