Well stocked kitchen and so many fun outside options for our various-aged family members to chose from. Use of outside game room, dock to swim/fish, and kayaks was super. Considerations for others (toddlers/older individuals)--located by very busy highway and lots of steps to get to water. Otherwise--excellent cabin rental option! ##### S J.

Weather didn't cooperate a ton, but it was nice to be so close to Alexandria to have things to do. Plus the garage game room was fun for the kids! The cabin was spacious and the beds were comfy. Updated kitchen made it comfortable to cook meals and just relax and enoy the lake. We'd stay here again. Jenn ##### Jenn K.

Lots of dishes, nice appliances, and enough sleeping room for all. We loved fishing off the dock, using the kayaks, enjoyed water sports on the lake, and nice that the location was close to a gas station, restaurants (Leaf Valley Mercantile and Old Mill were both great!), and a boat ramp. Definitely want to try out Carlos Creek Winery and 22 Northmen next time! ##### Andrew & Shelli R.

Gorgeous house, very well maintained. Close to Carlos Creek Winery. The back balcony off the living room has the most amazing view. The games in the garage were a huge hit with the teens. The kayaks were available to use, one son took one out and had fun. There was truly something for everyone. Excellent communication with the manager. I could not have asked for anything more! ##### Tiffany B.

We stayed to attend a wedding at the Winery up the road, amazing location! This Home has all you need, owners were quick to respond on the one small question we had. The garage game room was perfect for entertaining grands and teens! We were able to rent a pontoon from a local provider and tie right up to the dock. everything is new and in pristine shape! We would love to stay here again! The road is a little noisy, but the view of the lake and front deck makes up for any bit of noise. Truly a gem of a place to stay! ##### Peggy B.
