Cute little house close to the lake -

We had a wonderful time- nice little fire pit and seating area in the back yard for visiting. With a nice big deck for watching the sun rise with coffee ☕️ in the morning out front with view of the lake.

Weekend getaway for sports tournament

The layout of the house was perfect for entertaining. It was lacking in some kitchen equipment (no tupperware, mixer, dishcloths or pot holders). We had to do a quick wipedown of the fridge, counter tops and pans but everything else felt clean. Overall enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Perfect Spot!

This home had the perfect location near the lake with dock access! We had a wonderful time walking the neighborhood, boating on the lake and chilling in the backyard. Everything was exactly as it was listed with everything we needed to prepare meals and sleep the 12 family members who joined us for the weekend. Thank you for everything!

Nice neighborhood, could use a deep clean though.

House was in a great location to the lake and amenities. Could use a good cleaning as there were several spider webs visible, even on the lighting above the kitchen table.
