Great Gathering Spot
The aging Camper Girls decided to Glamp this year and what a great spot we found. Gorgeous lake views, a fire ring for our camper pies and s'mores, a bed for all and running water! We loved it.

Gorgeous views and quiet, peaceful getaway.
Family of 3 enjoyed this beautifully secluded cottage for a long summer weekend. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen contained everything we needed for the weekend. Communication with the owner couldn’t have been smoother or easier. The location was excellent with expansive views of the lake from several rooms. The canoe/kayak equipment was excellent and gave us the opportunity to tour the lake.

Why they chose this property

We looked at many properties and were so excited when we found this particular space. It is almost 3 acres, at the end of a quiet road and the lake front is very private.
