Had a great time staying here. House is tucked back in a cove and was nice and quiet and away from major boat traffic. Close to restaurants and stores. Also had the chance to meet the homeowners, they are very friendly and accommodating making sure our stay was great
We had a beautiful weekend on the lake with our son. It’s a small cottage with beautiful front porch. Owner lives next door and allows you to use dock and paddle boats. Grill came in handy. No dishwasher but for three people not a big deal to wash dishes. Bring your own lake towels. Plenty of space to park two vehicles. Highly recommend!
I recently stayed at this wonderful lakefront home with my son, and it was absolutely perfect. Communication with the host was seamless—clear, friendly, and responsive from start to finish. The location couldn’t have been better—peaceful, beautiful views, and right on the water. The place was clean, well-stocked, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We made some great memories here and would definitely come back. Highly recommend!
