This cabin was the perfect size for my family of 4 adults. Beautiful view of the lake from the porch. Convenient access to the lake below, just be careful the docks can be wobbly, but still very usable. Host was easy to communicate with and work with. My family would stay again!

Our parking lot used to be mud and we have put crushed asphalt so there is no more mud, now we can work on landscaping. We try to do a large project a year because it had been let go for so long, and we are trying to fix many, many years of neglect. It's getting better and better every season and we're going to continue working on them!

Had a good time.

Was a nice relaxing weekend. Would recommend some updates but, overall a very good experience. The owners were very nice and helpful. From what I understand there will be some upgrading this winter. I would recommend this resort to my friends. Thanks again for everything.

We have put a key code door knob on since your stay, the carpets need replacing, which we will be doing this fall, and thank you for the input on the bed, no one has let us know that.
