Our stay met our expectations and all the little details made it above our expectations. Everything from having extra toothpaste and toothbrushes if you forgot your own to a little Keurig choice of coffee and teas. The deck is wonderful to gather and have a nice meal together. The one thing that we had hoped was that we could see the water from the place and we could not. It’s only a slight walk to the beach, but I think we had hoped that we could see water from the deck. Everything else was amazing and the beds were super comfortable and clean. The rooms were adorable. All the little decorations are amazing. The split system to make each space as comfortable as you would like it for temperature was amazing. It made you wish you owned it! We would definitely go back and stay there again. Highly recommend it! Thank you, for an amazingly homie and cozy stay! We enjoyed every moment of it.♥️

The cabin was a charmer! Very comfortable, quiet, clean and well appointed. It was just what we were hoping it would be…perfect. The host was so gracious and had lights turned on for us when we found out we would not arrive until well past midnight, due to flight delays. Hope to stay here again! Thank you, Alice

Wonderful home, wonderful hosts! We had a lovely stay at the lake! The house was exactly as described and even better in person! The space was cozy and clean, bedrooms were very comfortable and tastefully decorated, and the patio was wonderful for relaxing with a morning coffee. I was impressed with all of the additional supplies available for guests such as pantry items, coffee, paper towels, toilet paper, laundry/dish soap, games galore, and beach supplies. These made our stay even better and we really felt at home. There are 3 pretty lake side swimming areas within walking distance and the neighborhood was great for morning or evening strolls. We had a small wind storm blow through on our last night and the hosts were so quick to follow up with us about power and got the generator up running quickly. This gave us an opportunity to meet the hosts as well and they were so friendly and kind. Great to have a local host nearby! Highly recommend! We hope to return soon!

We had a great stay overall. The house was clean, comfortable, and well stocked with everything we needed, making it easy to settle in and enjoy our time there. The only disappointment was the setting. The listing photos gave us the impression that the home was more secluded than it actually is. In reality, the deck and sliding doors overlook a neighboring home, and there is another house quite close on the side. It wasn’t a major issue, but it wasn’t the private, wooded feel we were expecting. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The area was quiet, and it was an easy walk to the small beach, which made for a relaxing and convenient getaway.
