The lake view was so beautiful. I also loved the chairs and the champagne/wine glasses that made the lakeside view even more enjoyable. Overall, the place was very clean, cozy, and comfortable to stay at. I can't wait to go back!!!!!

We had a fabulous weekend stay. The house was clean, space was great, beds were comfortable and the view was amazing. We will definitely be back.
10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2025
Pros - Beautiful view, stunning and thoughtful remodel, easy check in, good communication. The house upgrades were made with quality products. The large kitchen meant everyone could comfortably help with food prep. The front windows were a popular spot to drink our morning coffee. Cons - We were confused in the beginning because the house is up the hill, not on the lake. (We missed that when reading the property description.) The path to the kayaks was a bit overgrown. Our parents who are in their 70's said they missed having a safety bar in the shower. Having only one bathroom does create a bit of a hold up with the morning routine, but you know this going into the stay. Note: The neighbor kindly reminded us to park on our side of the driveway and suggested that that we drive through the back way when leaving instead of backing all the way down the driveway. I think the subtext was don't back into his driveway which is totally fair.
