We were very surprised at the beauty of the lake before us. The lake is rather small, but there’s hardly any development on it. From our view, it was nothing but large trees and lily pads. Very quiet, because there is no neighbor to the one side. The house is on a dead end with one quiet neighbor to one side. Everything in the house was great, however, we spent most of our time outdoors. Caught a bunch of bluegill, and totally enjoyed the hot tub! Super cool location, well worth the money.

Our stay was nothing short of incredible. The house was absolutely beautiful and clean. You couldn’t tell someone had checked out just a few hours before we got there. Frank and Kaylee offered so many helpful supplies throughout the home. It felt very welcoming and homey. Definitely a place you could stay long term. The outside was incredible. We had a weekend full of hot tubbing, kayaking, and sitting by the fire or on the deck soaking in the calming scenery. We also went on a hike just a ten minute drive away from the house which was beautiful (and sunny!) Everything about this stay from the check-in to the guidebook Frank and Kaylee made to help us through our stay was absolutely perfect. I wouldn’t have changed a single thing. They were very responsive and very thoughtful. Thanks to Frank and Kaylee’s hospitality and kindness, we had a weekend full of lasting memories. This house will definitely be on my list of favorites to visit again. It’s truly a year-round treat for everyone.
