Home Base for our Annual Vacation

This is our fourth year in a row to stay here on our three-generation annual vacation. The grandkids won't let us consider anywhere else. This house perfectly meets the needs of our family (6 adults and 4 kids). We appreciate the fully stocked kitchen as we eat most meals in. The easy fishing off the dock is a huge perk, and we made good use of the kayaks for turtle spotting. The sandbox and accompanying toys are also a hit.

Perfect family gathering place

What a beautiful home! Very spacious, very clean, and it was very kid friendly. We loved the fishing from the dock, the kayaks, and the lawn games. Chad was super responsive (and responded fast). And the neighbors were super friendly when we would go for walks! Our family loved this home, and wish we could bring it with us wherever we travel.

Perfect family lake week

The weather didn't cooperate, but the house definitely made up for it. Great screened in porch perfect for the days that rained. Kids had fun fishing and adults had plenty of room to spread out. We would love to book again if we can find a week that is open.
