The cleanliness was outstanding, and everything was well organized. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen setup gave us everything we needed to prepare family meals, and having bathrooms and living spaces on both levels gave us the room we needed. Having the lake and boat landing so close allowed us to use our boat as much as we wanted, and the crappie fishing was an unexpected bonus. We would definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises. ##### Al G. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### JODY C. 18 Sept 2025 ##### JODY C.
