From the minute we pulled in the gate it was Absolutely beautiful! The Lake was stunning as were all the surrounding tall trees. The lake is stocked well and the fishing was excellent! The cabin was very comfortable and practical. Great views from every room. The paddle boats were a nice addition for using on the lake. Kitchen and living area open for Great entertaining with family and friends. Lots of wildlife, numerous bird breeds and the livestock just made it feel like home! Very secluded and peaceful but close enough to town to enjoy some nice restaurants. Host was very responsive and very friendly. Any questions we had were answered very quickly. Great family gathering! Overall if I were able to I would give this place a 10 Star rating!! We will be back!!
