Amazing!!!! We will be back!
This was by far the best place we have stayed. We are already planned to come again next year. Beautiful, quiet and large enough for big families.

Gorgeous Home!
The house is beautiful and spacious, the perfect setup for a group gathering. We loved the lake view, all the windows, and outside access from just about anywhere in the house. The house was immaculate, very clean, temperature controls in all the bedrooms, and the gas fireplace was a nice touch on a cool evening. Chris was an excellent host, very accommodating to our arrival and departure requests, and a great communicator. Would love to stay here again!
