The house is rustic and full of character. Lots of books and games to enjoy while relaxing on the screened in porch.. Beautiful views, great dock with a really nice ladder for swimming. The walk to the lake is a bit steep but worth it. . The only downside to this property is that there is shared outdoor space with other people who also rent from this owner. We were unfortunate that the renters who stayed in the other house while we were there were very rude and set up tents around the fire pit that we were supposed to share with them. Then they hung up a hammock that blocked our direct walk to our dock. The little gazebo was not to be shared but they were using that as well, even after being told by the owner that it was not part of their rental. I would hope other renters are more courteous when using shared space. I would definitely come back to this lakeside retreat. The views, the dock, the porch, and the character of the house is very nice! The owner is extremely helpful and answered all of our questions in a timely manner.
