This secluded, pet friendly, cozyplace is perfect for relaxing. It was our 2nd year staying in September and the weather was beautiful. My husband fished and we walked the property, it's nice to just sit outside and listen to the fountains in the lake. The town is close and you can have food delivered or go out to eat. We will be coming back next year.

The house was cute and lake was beautiful. The hot tub was clean and worked well. Robes and towels supplied. The kitchen is well stocked with spices and condiments,. It's not as secluded as I anticipated. The hosts are in a home across the yard. We had a great stay!

The Lodge is a rustic slice of heaven. Kim and Tony the owners are responsive and delightful. They literally thought of everything. We had the most relaxing time! My husband floated around in the John boat they provided with our nephews on the pond for hours fishing to their hearts content. One nephew caught fifty fish. The sunsets are absolutely glorious and the grounds are so beautiful and lush. We had such a good time we extended our stay another night. The kitchen had everything we needed. The water pressure on the shower was perfect. 10/10

WiFi was down for our visit so we had to use our cell phone as a hotspot (using up our entire data allowance). There is no dishwasher if that is an absolute must, but we were thrilled with our week and enjoyed every single day that flew by way too quickly. Our hosts (Tony. and Kim) could not possibly have been more gracious, and bent over backwards to please. There is a hot tub that is wonderfully relaxing, and the view is priceless.

We really enjoyed our stay. The decorations in the house are really nice including the seasonal halloween/fall decor put out. Enclosed front porch was really nice spent a lot of time out there. The kids had a lot of fun fishing and going out on the kayaks.
