Our group had the best time at the Bunkhouse! We fished, played games, sat on the porch and listened to the rain, and enjoyed being unplugged! The Bunkhouse is spacious and very clean. The owner is responsive and very helpful. We will be back again and again!

We had a great time at the Bowman bunkhouse! It was perfect for our family. We loved all the personal details around the house and the owners thought of all the things guests might need or forget. They had plenty of fun games and fun things to do around the house even on a rainy weekend. We loved the covered porch and the fire pit. We also enjoyed the large kitchen table that we all could gather around. The hosts were very kind and gracious with all of our questions. Highly recommend this place anytime of the year.

Amazing Cabin & Amenities!

This cabin is sooo cozy, comfy and has sooo many things to do both inside and out. The nature surrounding it makes you have a sense of solitude, as if no one else is around. The kitchen had everything you need! Then there is a gas fire table on the deck and a real fire pit in the yard! There are games on the deck as well as inside. (Cornhole, ring toss, darts, shuffleboard and more) What I loved most is the view. You are right on the lake and there is not one other dock in view and no homes across the lake!! It is so quiet and peaceful!! No hustle and bustle of the world around us. Come relax, find peace and rejuvenate!! I highly recommend to families and small groups.

This makes the second time in two years that we have visited this cabin in the woods. We loved the two large decks that are fully stocked with comfy furniture and games for entertainment. The beds are super comfy with plenty room for the entire family and more. The Bowman Family are friendly and accommodating and take special are of this cabin. I highly recommend staying here and promise that you won’t regret it.
