Absolutely Wonderful

My partner and I enjoyed our mini vacation and we don’t have anything negative to say. Kelly and Al were great hosts. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. We actually over packed a bit. We loved going out to kayak and explore. The islands were great to explore or just to sit on a rock and enjoy the view. There were barley any bugs around the time we went which made it even more enjoyable. We would come back anytime to take it all in again.

This property will get you away from the rat race. Situated with Crown land on 2 sides, only one amazing neighbor, and seconds out your front door to the lake. Great fishing, wonderful nature trails, rock climbing (should you be so inclined), swimming, sun bathing, or day dreaming. All a heartbeat away.
