Check in was simple, and the cabin was clean and comfortable. The boat ramp across the street was convenient and not crowded.

Roger was an excellent host! Since we travelled for my husband’s fishing tournament, the house was everything my husband could’ve asked for with a public boat ramp across the street. The house very clean and comfortable, had all the items we needed, and allowed us to relax. We’ll be back next year!

Great place

This was a great little getaway cabin. We will be coming back with the kids as well. Perfect for a weekend getaway. Will be bringing the boat next time as this property is directly across from a boat ramp. Had a great time.

Really great set up if you plan to bring a small boat with you. Space is tight and you need to be a competent trailer backer, but the reward is a very convenient spot. PSA, lifted trucks and boats with burn bars will not fit under the cabin. I was just able to get the boat under, by pushing the trailer by hand. Still, really liked the place.

I had a really good time. The porch was perfect for enjoying a cup of coffee and relaxing. The kitchen had everything I needed. WiFi was strong / fast and there were no problems streaming TV on my Firestick. Check-in was a breeze and Roger was very responsive to the minor questions i had. I’ll go back.

This was a lovely stay for my family. We stayed here at the end of a long road trip to get some relaxing time and it was indeed relaxing. My husband was happy with the location and fishing (caught 9 fish!). Our oldest son was happy there was wifi. Our youngest son was happy to explore and bike around. I was happy that everyone was happy! And that there was a nice porch with a chair that looks out to the lake. The cabin was so clean and comfortable. Loved the kitchen and the loft for the boys. The only bad thing about staying here was that we just didn't stay long enough. Oh, and we were thrilled with the complimentary coffee and goodies! Thank you!

We had an enjoyable stay! The cabin was clean & met all of our needs. The neighborhood was quiet with the exception of a few late night loud boats but hey, it’s all part of the experience. There was a couple loud booms too thanks to being so close to the 4th of July - about scared me out of my skin haha! Overall wonderful stay, we brought our poles & caught a few fish next to the house and we thoroughly enjoyed watching the boat traffic come through Friday night. Everyone is so friendly! If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle, this is your place. So peaceful! Thanks Roger for having us!
