Great Trip - Would Stay Again
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this stunning lake house during the fall season, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The lake house was equipped with everything one could possibly need for a memorable stay. The fully stocked kitchen allowed us to cook delicious meals while enjoying the view, and the outdoor deck and patio were ideal for sipping coffee in the crisp morning air or sharing a glass of wine as the sun set over the lake. The provided kayaks allowed for fun and exploration on the water, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the experience. Would definitely stay again

Wonderful getaway destination
Had a quiet and relaxing time at the property. Beautiful view, and sunsets were amazing. Close to everything you could need, but nestled in a lovely neighborhood. The porch was definitely a highlight.

Nice quiet neighborhood. It's close to shopping and the highway, while still having the feeling of being remote.

Summer Vacation
We loved the cozy house right on the lake. The property is as cute as it looks. The surrounding neighborhood is quiet and there are grocery stores close by. We had a wonderful time kayaking, relaxing in the sun, and making s’mores. We would definitely return!

Girl’s weekend
Loved the cuteness and conveniences. We had a blast with the ducks on the pond and kayaking and found enough fun things to do for the weekend. Great porch and fire-pit was nice. Would ask for grill to be cleaner and a few extras in the kitchen like a strainer, kitchen sponge, pepper empty, no coffee as stated. Couch not as comfortable as the beds which were fantastic!
