Peaceful Retreat

Star Icon 0 0Star Icon 0 1Star Icon 0 2Star Icon 0 3Star Icon 0 4

November 2025

Peaceful retreat. The kitchen was well stocked and had what we needed to cook a full thanksgiving dinner. The beds were really comfortable. The split king adjustable head/foot bed upstairs was well beyond what you typically find in a rental, and so comfortable. Plenty of space and the home is well laid out. We rented in November, and there was a beautiful view of the lake and stunning sunsets from the house. The property was so peaceful and we enjoyed the short walk to the lake, and the quiet of the lake. We all enjoyed fishing from the property. Easy and quick communication when we had a question. We will be back.
