Weekend Getaway

This cute cottage was just what our 2 Senior adults couples needed. It has a flat lot that made it easy to enter with very few steps at the doors. It was clean and had a well stocked kitchen. The dock was a favorite fishing spot. We especially enjoyed the large screened porch. We spent lots of time out there. Our host, Ivy made our entire visit a smooth experience.

Great Quiet Lake Getaway

This is a great place to get away with family/friends to enjoy the lake and just relax! We brought our boat and tied up to the dock a few yards from the back porch. (There is a full service marina and free boat launch just down the road). The fishing is fantastic! The neighbors were super friendly. We will definitely be back again as soon as possible!

Peaceful and Perfect

We loved our long weekend! We came for a family wedding and the house was perfect. It was clean and comfortable. My 80 something in-laws appreciated the easy 1 step entrances. The view of the lake was beautiful and very peaceful. My adult kids loved getting to use the kayaks!
