Such a beautiful location with a walkway around the lake that you could easier walk to the small downtown. Grocery, drugstore, restaurants were within walking distance. Everyone was friendly. The kitchen was stocked for breakfast and had everything you would need to cook. It was great to be able to wash your clothes and put the drying rack outside. Close to so many things that it was the perfect place to stay ##### Cheryl S. Stayed 8 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gay R. 3 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing One of the better places to stay. Extremely convenient for fishing. Small things need attention, such as entrance door very hard to lock, kitchen tap needs replaced as it sprays everywhere. Overall top marks. ##### Gay R.
