A great weekend getaway, we hoped the kitchen had been a bit larger and more updated, but overall no large complaints on the inside. The outdoors is why you want to stay here, plenty of seating, plates to use, the hot tub and grill were excellent amenities. We fished all day Friday and Saturday and had a ton of fun.

Lake view is beautiful, lots of outdoor spaces to enjoy. Very clean. Nice laid back beach vibe- relaxing decor with calm colors. Wishing we had made plans in advance to rent a boat with a captain to fully enjoy the lake.

What a super cute house on the lake! Beautiful views, adorable decor, and the most peaceful area! So quiet! We enjoyed our stay so much - the kitchen is stocked with everything you need! And it smells like a high end hotel ….really nice Our favorite spot was on the deck watching the sunrise…and catching the moonlight glow at night- Ashley was a great host. Always answered any questions I had quickly and sweetly! The check in/out was simple - no long lists of things to do before leaving:) Stay at this location- you won’t regret it!
On the deck enjoying the beautiful sunrise!

We did a family trip with our children ranging from 19 months to 17 years old. It was great to be able to access the lake from the house and from the beach down the street in the neighborhood.Ashley was very communicative and super responsive to all of our questions.
