The house was very nice and comfortable. View of the lake was beautiful. Lack of outdoor seating and chairs though.

Everything was great I would add some seating outside and a TV. Great place overall.

Thank you for the feedback. We appreciate it. We have plans to add a firepit and patio area shortly and will add a photo to reflect that when complete. Thanks for staying with us. Regards.
Thank you for your review — we're glad to hear everything went smoothly with the house during your stay! We appreciate you choosing our home and would be happy to host you again in the future.
Amazing view when you step through the front door. Very clean, and quaint. Plenty of room for just what we needed. Just dont forget water shoes as it is a bit rocky and zebra mussles are sharp. Had a wonderful quiet stay enjoyed seeing birds every morning on the water. Definitely recommend!
