Cute property with much effort and attention to detail. The view was amazing, which was relaxing to enjoy both inside and out. Great spaces to gather or spread out. Unfortunately there were a couple things that attracted us to the property, as a family with older kids, that we were disappointed with. First was the beach. We love the crystal clear water, but it wasn’t nearly deep enough to swim, fish, or dock our boat. Water depth is 9 inches up to the reeds. We had to walk 100 yards out to anchor and access by foot. It was clear based on neighbors properties that these water levels are normal. We wish this was clearly disclosed in the property description rather than just in the property handbook. The other thing was the game room. We discovered it unusable due to an overpowering mold/mildew odor. We didn’t feel well after spending any time in there. I can see how this property would be great for families with younger kids or groups with other objectives!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The property is beautiful and amenities were plentiful. The scenery is very peaceful, wonderful for watching the sun rise and set. The hosts are phenomenal! Communication was excellent. Check in and checkout was simple. We enjoyed trying (and failing 😆) to create our own wood fired pizza. Just know that the lake has a sandy and shallow shoreline. We pushed our pontoon to the dock just to be careful. Fishing was excellent on the lake, just not at the dock. This lakefront would be excellent for parents with smaller kids. The sandy bottom is perfect for play and the water is only about 2 feet deep for 150yards. Highly recommend staying!

We stayed here for a couple of nights for a last minute family getaway. The beach area was perfect for young children with a shallow sandy entrance to the water. Our family enjoyed making smores at the fire pit and making meals in the kitchen. Our daughter was able to use the paddle board and there were plenty of beach toys and life jackets. The cabin was well equipped and there was plenty of space. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a great stay at the Life is Good Lodge. The lake views were incredible, especially from the bar area and the hot tub. The large TVs made it perfect for relaxing and spending time together, and the sleeping arrangements were very generous and comfortable for our group. Everything was set up well for a fun, easy, and memorable stay. We’d definitely book again.
