Wow! This is a great spot to get close to nature while pampering yourself!

Totally loved it! Amazing value and everything you could want. This host/hostess are amazing but the property is even more so, lol. This is the stuff that makes abandoning hotels worth the effort!

Loved our stay in this stylish, comfortable cabin!

Lots of amenities to enjoy including the well stocked kitchen, beautiful deck with chaise recliners, patio table and chairs, games, a charcoal grill, and, of course, the lake! The bed is also very comfortable. Walking down to the water takes about 2 minutes. The grassy area in front of the water has tons of Adirondack chairs, fire pits, paddle boards and kayaks to use. There’s a small dock to jump off of. We reached out to the hosts several times and each time they were very response, once even driving up to bring us an extra game. We grilled, played croquet and bocce (included!), and enjoyed the lake. There are 5 cabins in a row (you can see the neighbors decks) and a larger house coming online soon. This would be an awesome spot for a family reunion or gathering of friends.

lovely cabin in a fabulous setting

We were looking for a cabin on a lake to spend a few days fishing and swimming with our pups. We found a little slice of paradise! We stayed in cabin 4 which was outfitted with what we needed to be comfortable and feel at home during our stay. Lake access was a quick walk from the cabins where you find Adirondack chairs, row boats, kayaks, paddle boards and more. Fish, swim, relax and repeat! We are looking forward to visiting again, maybe next time for some winter fun!
