Perfect Location

We loved the location! It was an easy walk to the lake and multiple places to eat. My kids spent hours playing in the backyard and we found all the essential basics in the house. We also appreciated the washer and dryer.

Nice house for a family

Well-equipped, well-kept house in a convenient location a few streets back from the lake. Very responsive host. There are two large bedrooms, each with a queen-sized bed, perfect for a couple with a couple of kids, and a complete kitchen. There is a pull-out sofa in the living room for more people, but that didn’t look very comfortable.

Great little cabin in a great location

We had such a nice Christmas stay in this little house. It's in a great location, walking distance to bars and restaurants and just a short drive to the casinos. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and condiments. Beds were comfortable. It was perfect for our white Christmas.
