The home is very clean and nicely laid out. There are different areas where people can gather for activities with a separate game area and a nice enclosed porch with great view of the lake. There are a variety of shops in close proximity and it is easy to visit other areas of interest. My friends and I definitely recommend this home and plan to return ourselves.

This home is a gem on the lake. The view is spectacular to be enjoyed from the yard or the sun porch. The house was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. If I may suggest two additions, an ice cream scoop and some wine glasses would be welcome additions. Check in and out was easy and efficient. There is plenty of seating on the patio, and a lovely table and chairs for six. The neighborhood is quiet and well maintained although it wasn’t summer yet. Communication with the contact was helpful. She even called our first evening to make sure all was well.

Great location and very clean home. Lake front not accessible to people in wheelchairs. Water was shallow which is great for children or just relaxing. Neighbors were quiet. Looking forward to visiting again soon.
