Loved our stay at this beautiful home with beautiful views! This was our third time vacationing here and it was again wonderful. The home is comfortable and well stocked, the yard and swim area provides lots of fun and the dock is great for the boats. I would highly recommend this vacation home. Linda N.

Another perfect week!

We have stayed here for the past several years and the location and view can’t be beat. Very friendly owners who make sure we had everything we need like firewood & gas for the grill. An ideal place to spend a week with friends and family.

This property is right on the water. You can relax on the deck, anywhere in the big yard or even on the raft not far from the dock. The host is very nice and generous. He even helped me with an issue I had during my stay. We feel at home. We even booked extra weeks for next year.

Relaxation at its finest...

Sun rise on the deck is as spectacular as the moonrise over the lake in front of the fire pit. Great place to unwind!
