Couldn’t ask for anything more. ##### Jonathan W. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Anthony K. 19 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Overall great location. Loved the views of the lake from the various decks. Minor complaints would be to remove all spider webs in the house when house keeping is done. Some pans and baking trays definitely need replacing and the bed upstairs to the immediate right my brother could not sleep in because the mattress felt like it had soft spots of holes so he slept better on the firm couch in the living room. Overall we had a great relaxing time ##### Anthony K.
