It was brand new looking and the beds and linens were extra comfy. I’ve also never seen a kitchen for a rental that stocked, it was great! I originally booked it based on the pin location. It wasn’t accurate as it was on the other side of the lake but it actually turned out to be better for us anyways. It has access to a private dock for the houses there and there’s also a rental place there that you can rent boats, jet skis, kayaks and paddle boards which is what we ended up doing and it was a highlight for us! Would definitely come back and recommend staying here. ##### Janessa C.
