Beautiful home in an amazing location

We really enjoyed our stay. The home was incredibly clean and really cozy, the hot tub was great in the evening after going down to the lake for a swim, even took the kayaks provided out which was fun. Beautiful location and really lovely host. Definitely would come back here :)
