Wow

When we walked into the house, we all said wow. The over 180 degree views outside the walls of windows was awesome. We were attending our daughter's graduation from USC and the house provided the perfect escape.

Great vacation spot!

We booked the house for a fishing trip and it could not have been more perfect. The launch ramp was tight but very manageable with the bass boat and the location on the lake could not have been better. The views from the deck and living room are amazing and Margaret was super responsive with any questions we had. Lake life at its best!
