Perfect for my wife, pup and me. The outdoor spaces are great, plenty of seating on the decks, fire pit and dock. Plenty of firewood for inside and out. Pick up some worms and catch panfish from the dock.

The house is very nice and we were greeted with a bottle of Prosecco, ingredients for S’mores and pre-loaded fire pit and fireplace. These extra touches were great! Kayaks and life vests were nice! The house has everything needed for a great stay and they have thought about all the little things. The only item that we didn’t expect is that dock is on a finger off the lake- but kayaks made it nice to get out there. It was a great getaway!
