Our group of 15 had a nice weekend stay at JJ's Lakeside. Loved the 6 bedrooms that allowed each family their own space, as well as the easy access to the lake for ice fishing and other winter activities. We needed to contact the owners a few times throughout our stay, and they were very quick to repsond to our messages and very accomodating. Overall we enjoyed our stay! ##### KATHARINA V.

This home was perfect for our group of 12\. The waterfront area is great and the deck and fire pit were perfect for evenings hanging out. The kitchen had everything we needed for full meals for all. The bathrooms are really nice and with three we never had a wait even with 12 of us. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend this house! ##### Laura C.
