Very comfortable all around- space, bedding, supplies, furniture. Slept & cooked for 6 adult family members very easily. Host was perfect, closeby and prompt for answering questions but allowed us complete privacy. We were up from FL visiting family/friends in TC, location easy for them to stop by or stay overnight.Will likely stay here again. Lots of great fishing too!
Fun catch- then released
Who has the biggest fish?
Our dog Sunday enjoyed a boat ride.

Family staying together

We were in town for a family member’s graduation. We had grandma, two sisters, and 4 cousins staying together. This property was perfect!! We were all able to stay together. The kids enjoyed the nice yard and the lake. They had plenty of room to play together. Mary and Steven were so amazing and were very helpful to us. The house and property were clean and there was a lot of seating inside and out.

Excellent cabin and so clean.

We felt so relaxed and well taken care of. Fishing off the dock was a highlight! My AZ grandchildren found this place a great place to read, play games and of course eat Grandma's cooking. Host's were kind and so helpful. Suggestions, have some chairs on the lawn, around the fire pit and table. I would recommend this place if you like calm and rest, with great sunsets.

Birthday Weekend

I decided this year to treat myself and my family to a cabin on the lake for my birthday! My sister and I arrived Friday and everything was ready for us. The cabin is beautifully remodeled and designed. They had free wood for a campfire and my sister and I quickly settled in. The next day I was able to meet the owners and they were very accomodating to my family that arrived on Saturday. We lucked out and had the best weather and floated for hours on the lake while my mom and youngest daughter used the kayaks. They have plenty of lakeshore land for littles to run and play! The only reason I did not rate this stay a 5/5 was the comfort of the beds. With an update in bedding I would highly recommend this stay.

Annual Family Trip

I seriously would have booked for next year, already, if they weren't already booked. The fish never stopped biting. The weather was perfect. The hosts live next door and had everything that we forgot! Nice level yard to the dock. Cutest little cottage with all the amenities we required. I can't say enough.

Weekend of fun!

Our stay could not have been better. Mary was so responsive and had the cabin and yard looking immaculate. The cabin was adorable. It was clean, updated, perfectly decorated and stocked with everything we needed. We loved having three bedrooms for our family and the big yard for yard games and all sitting in the shade. The dock was big enough for our two boats and jet ski. At night, we enjoyed campfires and beautiful fireworks from the neighbors. The parking was ideal for our group. This cabin is wonderful and the hosts made it very comfortable to enjoy our anticipated Fourth of July weekend. Thank you again!

AMAZING!

This place is a gem! Truly a rare find. It was perfect for a girls trip with my mom and sisters! The location is SO convenient and close to towns with great coffee shops, restaurants, and shopping places. We spent the rainy day in town and spent the beautiful weather outside on the deck and out on the kayaks. So fun and so relaxing and peaceful! The lake house has all the essentials and then some! Very clean and the view is great and the hosts/owners thought of everything! Beautiful landscaping too. Sunsets were stunning. Great location for taking walks too! The host’s dogs are very cute too! Check in was super easy. Could not recommend this place enough!
