Relaxing property in a great location.

This property was clean and provided all the amenities needed. Also, the property was situated in a great location, close to a variety of public boat ramps and in a wind-protected cove. The boat house made it convenient to dock the boat and break for lunch.

Brief getaway

House is nicely decorated and especially clean. Well stocked, comfortable and great access and view of lake. Quiet neighborhood. Host very nice. Older home with nice updates. Ideal location for boat owner to stay but we only fished (unsuccessfully) briefly from nice boat dock.

We had an excellent stay. The property is a little older but the price reflects that and it is well maintained and cared for. Great communication from the host. Beautiful view and access to the lake right out the back door that can’t be beat, fishing off the dock and firepit nighttime vibes. Our puppy was in heaven as well - we would absolutely stay here again - 10/10!
