After this stay on the lake I’ve seriously considered moving countries away to stay near here.

This location is incredible and the check in process was smooth along with communication with the host before and during our stay. I wouldn’t recommend staying with more than 2 people. Heads up you will need your own beach towels / supplies for swimming!
