This house is incredible! We’ve got a large extended family (16 people) and we all felt right at home and very comfortable. There was plenty of space in the common rooms as well as enough beds so we could all separate and do our own thing. The house is close to town as well as the lake but the neighborhood is still peaceful. There are plenty of things to do from water activities to walking through town and eating amazing food and looking through souvenir shops. We highly recommend staying with Heidi!
