An absolutely lovely, clean and extremely comfortable house, very tastefully furnished. Just the right size for us, our son and 10-year-old granddaughter (who loved the bunk bed room!). Spent most of our time on the huge covered porch. Room for relaxing, meals outside, and playing board games. The beds were SO comfortable—we all commented—as was the furniture. You could cook pretty much anything in the well-equipped kitchen. The water from the dock is not for swimming, but we visited a nearby beach that made for a fun day for everyone. Saw lots of birds, turtles, fish jumping, heron, an osprey and hawk, and fireflies. It was a wonderful place for a relaxing vacation for everyone! Thank you for sharing such a lovely house!

We had a great time staying here for my sister's bachelorette weekend. The house was clean and exactly as pictured. We'd definitely recommend and consider staying here again.

This is hardly a lake house. More like a swamp house. Property is located on shallow, swampy cove of lake, smells and dirty. Trash and litter all around swampy lake bank and back property. Way overpriced. Pictures look way better than the actual site.
