We had a wonderful stay! The house was very clean, the views were absolutely beautiful, and everything was exactly as described. Communication with the host was excellent, and the check-in/check-out instructions were clear and easy to follow. We had no issues during our stay. The guest kayaks were a fantastic bonus and made our time on the lake even more enjoyable. This is a great place for families, and we would definitely stay here again!
