Amazing stay!
The property was great and we really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful views and it was even decorated for the holidays. The driveway however wasn’t plowed and it was really difficult to get out. Overall, lovely.

Beautiful lake house
This house was truly amazing! It was such a relaxing place with the lake, the dock, the outside fireplace and the hot tub to sit in on the cooler evenings. The beds were comfortable, as were the sofa and chairs. We loved this rental! ❤️

A perfect getaway
Host was prompt and responsive to small concerns. House was beautifully decorated and spacious. The air conditioning was very cold so bring a sweater! Property was well appointed with lots of lake toys( Stand up paddle boards, floaties etc) pet friendly with full gated yard. Would book again!
