My husband and I had relaxing weekend getaway. We loved spending time on the dock fishing, lounging in the water on the floats, and BBQing on the patio each evening. Ending our days around the firepit was the perfect way to unwind. It was such a peaceful escape and we really enjoyed it!

This was perfect for 3 families to share while here for a baseball tournament. The kids loved the game room across the street and the dock for fishing/swimming. The house had all the amenities we expected and more- and it had a beautiful view of the lake. The host was very responsive.

Excellent home with absolutely everything you would need for a large or small group. Plenty of linens (all great condition) and beds (all comfortable). Entry was easy and although we did not spend much time in the yard or near the dock, both are great spaces to entertain and enjoy - the view was beautiful. Quick responses from the host were helpful!

Thank you for your stay! If anyone is wondering, those are not mosquitoes, the bugs you are referring to do not bite. We call them lake bugs and yes they are annoying but they are not mosquitoes.

The pictures does not do the house justice. It is absolutely beautiful and so much room. I love that the master bedroom was on top floor and can overlook the lake and back yard. The bottom floor as I called the basement lol had so many beds we left all the teenagers down there and couldnt hear them laughing and giggling all night. There was several things for all the kids to do. My 2 granddaughters stayed on the swing alot... It was very relaxing even though it rained a couple times through our stay it was so peaceful and relaxing. Thank you for letting us make memories in your lovely home.

We loved the Lake view, all of the outdoor cooking options, outdoor seating, and the fire pit! Both teenagers and adults were happy and looking forward to going back.

Spring Break Oasis

My family had the perfect weekend at Melissa’s lake house. Our group had kids of all ages, and everyone enjoyed themselves. The dock was amazing, and everything you could imagine needing was stocked in the house. We have stayed at many vacation rental houses, and this was by far our favorite. I highly recommend this rental.

Lake Time

This is our 2nd time to stay at this house and we had so much fun. Spent most of our time at the boat house which is huge and has plenty of covered area to get out of the sun. The house is comfortable, clean, and well stocked. Perfect for my family. Can't wait to come back next summer.

Lovely Lake Getaway

Our entire family so enjoyed the lakehouse/boat dock/game clubhouse during our stay. The house was roomy enough for all of us and just had an amazing time on the deck and boat house. We happened to be there for July 4th and had an assortment of fireworks all around us. Sunsets were truly gorgeous. Just had a wonderful time. Thank you for your great home.
