My mom and I stayed here while visiting family. It was easy to get in and out of the views were great, the shower isn’t accessible but everything else was really wonderful for both of us. We were able to host a family dinner and the common space in this home is very generous. The kitchen had enough plates silverware cooking stuff to suit our needs. The beds were comfy. I felt very lucky to have had this time. I would consider staying here again in the summer I bet it’s FUN, with the Eagles Club in walking distance.

House was clean, location was quiet, great access to the water with boat landing just around the corner. Loved the deck and backyard.

This is a beautiful home, way larger than anticipated. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Loved the view right on the lake. Was a great place to spend time with family, cook meals together and enjoy the beautiful patio. The kitchen was well stocked. The towels , linens and beds were super comfortable. Loved having a washer/dryer on-site - just remember to turn on the water to make the washer work :)
