The host was amazingly welcoming. She checked in shortly after we got there to make sure that we were safe. The next morning she checked in briefly to see if there was any additional items we needed. Now, for the home. It is stunning. Not only the view, but the home is very welcoming, clean and well fall out for a big group of people. The kitchen was very stocked. She had enough coffee for the entire weekend. The linens were solve. The beds were great and everything was spectacular. If you were even contemplating renting a beautiful lake home, this is it. The pool, the hot tub, and the outside atmosphere is unbeatable. Great place to stay. We hosted a work retreat in the ample bedrooms were very helpful for everyone to have their own bathroom and most bedrooms had their own bath, which was terrific. There is a there was a theater room with a huge TV and relaxing chairs. It was amazing.
