The location and the home were excellent. Our weather didn’t cooperate but the stay was still fun with the pool table and recreation area in the home. Perfect getaway for the 8 of us. Owners were so responsive to any of our questions. Beds comfortable and yard perfect for our dog. Pontoon rental was worth the extra expense.

This place is even better than the pictures! The bar with jukebox and pool table was a great place to relax after catching plenty of fish not too far from the cabin. The interior is super comfortable and newly renovated. I’m already looking forward to going back!

The place was very clean and accommodated everyone nicely. Plenty of things to do around the place. Kayaks, peddle boat and games. The pool table, bar area and darts were fun. It was nice to relax and just enjoy family and scenery. Dawn was very responsive and the entire process went smoothly. Thanks for opening up your place and property!
