Absolutely beautiful stay! We went to fish and it was a prime location for that! The only downside is that it’s a drive to get to any restaurants or entertainment, which wasn’t a deal breaker for us but may be for some. We will certainly be back!!

This is a lovely old-fashioned lake home. It was clean, comfortable and had terrific views. The lake was very low during our visit but the sunsets from the deck were still beautiful.

Property was exceptionally clean and located in a very quiet neighborhood. The listing and pictures were accurate, and the price reflects some deferred maintenance on the property exterior (nothing that impacted us). I would return. Host reached out immediately reiterating the need to bring your own towels and sheets, for those reading challenged persons such as I. I would also recommend bringing blanket(s) and pillows, as those that are provided are a bit dusty, as is typical in an infrequently used vacation home. Overall, I would recommend.

Wish we had one more day! If we did not have to be back to teach children church on Sunday we definitely would have left Sunday. It is a perfect place for a quick, short vacation to getaway from the city and enjoy the beauty of Gods creation.

Awesome place! Great vuews, great weather access, great SUP's that come with. So glad I got to enjoy it. BUT NO sheet nor towels certainly did not make it the paradise I expected. Simple hygiene really.

John K, I am sorry you neglected to read the RENTAL RULES, that you agreed to when you rented the property. It clearly stated for guests to provide their own bed linens and towels, and this is very common at many, many rental properties. Thank you for enjoying the place, though, and for your 5 star review. I appreciate that.
