Lakeside retreat

This property is on a private road in a beautiful cove on the lake. Barry, the owner, lives next door and is EXTREMELY hospitable and obviously takes great care of the place, more so than you see with properties kept up by management company staff with remote owners. The biggest thing that stood out was that the online listing pictures do NOT do the property and it's amazing views justice. The property is spacious and set up very well, although there is no inside stairway going from the upstairs to the downstairs (thankfully the weather stayed perfect, and this did not bother us) . The hill going down to the water and small dock is STEEP, which was initially a concern for my children, and friends' children who visited (ages 3-5), but thankfully we all stayed safe and the kids had a blast swimming and going out in the awesome complimentary kayaks with us. Nothing beats waking up to the serene views the property offers right from the kitchen and living area with large windows. At night the entire cove's house and dock lights bounce and dance off the still water and you can star gaze all night. We grilled out, caught fish and were offered to book a charter on the owners awesome pontoon boat but only declined because of other plans, but would love to be taken out on the lake next time. We will certainly return here!

We stayed for 10 days and enjoyed every minute. The property suited our family with a full kitchen and bedrooms on the top and bottom levels. The owner was very attentive to our needs and made sure we were satisfied. The location on the lake is perfect with deep, clean water and an amazing view from the top deck. We had a wonderful time and will be back!
