REVIEWS "Such a beautiful home with a stunning view! We especially loved the screened porch and sunroom on the main floor. The open kitchen floor plan makes it easy to socialize while prepping meals. The bottom floor worked well for the couple with a small child. The extra space downstairs was wonderful for her to have room to play. The upstairs bedrooms were quiet and comfortable. This made it nice if some wanted to stay up; they could, while others could go up and sleep away from any noise. The beach is just steps away, which made it so convenient. We had a magical weekend and will definitely return!" Janet B.
"Our rental experience with Unsalted has been a very positive one. Customer service and communication were excellent, and our rental was absolutely beautiful and spotless! That all makes for a very pleasant stay. Thank you, Unsalted Vacation Rentals!!" Cindy B.

The house, its siting and its amenities, made for a wonder long weekend escape. It has a great layout for several guests, with several decks from which to enjoy the lake view. Very nice house, and we plan to return.
