Family Retreat

It was a delightful stay - games on the patio, corn hole on the desk, swimming, fishing, walks, and sitting around the fire. Also, we greatly appreciated the ample fridge and freezer space.

Great Family Stay!

My brother and our families (4 adults, 5 teens) stayed at the Hideaway along with our 2 dogs. Great place! Plenty of comfortable beds for all to have their own space. Living room area and the large dining table was great for playing board games. The dogs (and kids) loved running around in the woods and around the lake. The kitchen is massive, with plenty of room for multiple people to cook and well stocked with every type of pan, utensil or sharp knife you might need! We definitely will put this on our list to return to when the weather is warmer and we can swim in the lake!

Enjoyable for all ages.

Comfortable and well-equipped home, with more than enough towels. Under-advertised as has 2 1/2 baths, and use of the boathouse. Loved swimming and jumping off the dock, fishing, and just trolling around the lake with the two boats with trolling motors, and the peddle boat. Very wide mowed path around the lake and other trails. Also had marshmallow forks for the s’mores around the campfire. Enjoyed the rocking bench at the end of the dock, especially in the early morning and for watching sunsets. Hosts were very helpful and responsive. Great memories made.
