If you need an escape from the city, this is the perfect place to book! The views are simply spectacular and the house has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The rooms and bathrooms were impeccably clean, and the kitchen was stocked with all of the essential cookware that was needed to cook. The major highlights of the house were the lake, the docks, and the outdoor spaces!

Serene and Beautiful

We loved our stay. The house was clean and so inviting. We wished the weather would have been better to go Kayaking, but otherwise, we had a fantastic stay. Would love to go back with the kids.
