Bring your own boat or rent one locally, and keep it at our dock. Enjoy the wood stove or the fire pit by the shore, and the big yard for all kinds of games.

Our cabin is set up for comfort and extended families. There are three bedrooms, two full baths and lots of options for sleeping arrangements. The master has a queen and twin, BR2 has a full, a twin, and a trundle, BR3 has a full and twin, and the TV room has a full futon. In addition there is a pull out sofa in the living room, and the kids will love piling into the Kid's Cubbie, which can hold two teenagers or twice that many rugrats!

The kitchen is fully stocked for all your cooking needs and the dining room table seats 10 with three more seats at the kitchen peninsula. Two card tables with chairs are also available.

There is a TV with a selection of movies or streaming to entertain the kids on those rare rainy days. We do not have cable TV - we hope you'll be too busy enjoying the lake! We do have internet available.

Great location and amenities were exceptional especially as we traveled in from out of state
Brought my parents who are in their 80s and grandchildren 3&6. The lot worked well for all with the flat walk out to the lake. Fishing off the dock was the highlight for my 6 year old grandson. Catch several sunnies and a couple were keepers.

Nice stay
property was as listed. They had everything we needed for our trip. However, we ran into some unexpected issue on 2nd day when contractors came and removed the dock while we all were out fishing. Looks like owner had miscommunication regarding the timing of dock removal. we did manage to temporarily dock at neighbor's dock to get everyone off-board, however we had to return the boat to marina overnight, which was a little hassel. other than that, it was a perfect stay. we would stay here again.
