Location, views, wildlife and firepit are great. Don't recommend upstairs bedroom for elderly or young child, has steep spiral staircase and home has only one shower which is very small in lower bedroom. But would overall recommend and stay again. ##### Jan A.

The location right on the water is perfect. We rented a jet ski from the marina one day and had a blast and having the dock there was easy to tie up to and take a break. The kayaks, paddle board, and lily pad float that were available to use made playing on the water so much fun. The house was clean, spacious, and perfect for our family of 4.
