We loved this place! The house was clean, the hot tub was clean, the location was great and we loved the lake, and our kids loved the kayaks! It was so peaceful, and the surrounding towns were so cute. And we were close enough to the Silver Lake area that we could take in all it has to offer as well. Great vacation!

It was the perfect sister trip! We lived every second and took full advantage of the hot tub and the gorgeous deck overlooking the lake! What a perfect location, comfy home, and great hosts! We even came home and ordered the same sheets that were on the beds!

Perfection!

Everything was very clean and fresh. We had everything we needed. Our boys loved the kayaks and the table with built in fire pit for smores! The only negative was the public boat access to the lake next door, which was noisy at times. Otherwise, it was perfection! We will definitely be back.
