Wonderful memories were made with family. Our adult children and 4 grandchildren had such a great time fishing, bonfires, playing outdoor games and lots of laughs! The yard was perfect for our large group with littles. Lots of space inside too! Very comfortable and accommodating for a large group. Thank you for sharing your beauty lakeside home
