Fantastic lake house. We really enjoyed our stay. The host had good communication. The location was very central and had all the amenities needed. Neat and clean. Lots of space and an amazing view from the deck over the beautiful lake. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again. Thank you.

The house had a beautiful view and was well maintained. I would say that there was an overpowering musty odor. Maybe we were the first guests in a while? I grew up going to lake cottages in the summer so am used to slightly musty smells but this was a little extreme. Otherwise it was a lovely spot.
