Great place to stay and relax
Place was amazing, plenty of place to sleep, nice room for ping pong and pool and to hangout as a group and a hot tub to wind down. Made an excellent bachelor party for a sober groom!

Perfect!!
This property was just as pictured! The cabin was clean and we had everything we could need. If you are going with family and young kids it is perfect!! The lake is shallow by the cabin, not weedy or rocky and has a great beach for the kids to play. The cabin was stocked with beach toys, lake toys and baby items. We also enjoyed the addition of the hot tub. I would definitely recommend and would come back again!

Great Beachfront!
The beachfront and lake definitely make this property! The host was great at communicating. The outside of the property could be cleaned up better but overall it was a great property. The lake is sandy and the water was crystal clear!

Beautiful Lakeside Retreat
We stayed here over the 4th of July and had an amazing time. The beach area was perfection! A sandy beach with shallow water for all the little ones to play. And, we loved having two separate family spaces for when the days/nights got a little rainy. The property manager responded very quickly to any concerns to ensure our stay was perfect.
