We enjoyed a lovely stay with family. The wildlife showed out this week. Beautiful! The amenities were great. Lots to do for the young and young at heart. Thanks for opening your lake house for us. Kayaking around the Islands is a must!

The home was beautiful, rustic but well-kept, and felt perfect for the lake. We enjoyed the screened-in porch the most! The swimming area by the dock was nice, with good sand. Would definitely recommend. We hope to stay there again.
