Lakefront with awesome sunsets.

Rustic interior in a relaxing atmosphere. Gas bar-b-que on the deck while overlooking the lake watching the deer and wildlife. Lake access just around the corner to launch your boat and fishing is great!

Everything and more!
This was our 3rd time to visit Second Wind. Frank and Linda are the sweetest people and make you feel like family. If you want to relax, this is your best bet. The view is the best, anytime of day. If you're ready to get away from it all, slow down and enjoy nature, you won't be disappointed. You never know what kind of goodies Linda is going to bake, but whatever it is, it's delicious!

Everything about this stay was absolutely amazing! Frank and Linda were extremely nice and made us feel very welcomed. Frank provided us with bait to fish with that helped us catch an abundance of catfish. Linda is fantastic at gardening and baking, we had home baked goodies waiting on us at arrival. We highly recommend staying here if you have the chance and we are already planning our next visit.

Frank and Linda were the best hosts. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. We were welcomed with tasty freshly baked treats and treat bags for our pups too. The bed was so comfortable and the evening views of the sunset from the patio were beautiful. We will definitely be back. This was a last minute getaway and I’m so glad we found it.

Amazingly Beautiful and Peaceful!!!
What an amazing time we had here at “Second Wind!” Such a beautiful scenery with beautiful, breathtaking sunsets. We really enjoyed sitting out by the fire-pit with plenty of available wood to burn. The host Frank and Linda was very accommodating in every way. Linda made wonderful treats in which we sure enjoyed. So sweet and very good! Had a great time fishing and kayaking even. The bed and fully remote controlled recliners were very comfortable and so relaxing. Looking forward to coming back another time.

Frank and Linda were wonderful hosts, & the property itself was picturesque and exactly what my partner and I were looking for. We enjoyed coffee and breakfast on the patio before kayaking then getting dressed and heading into Jefferson to explore the town. We would definitely stay here again!

Remote and beautiful
Linda and Frank have created a special place. Driving through the area you smell the pine trees coming in and when you get to "Second Wind" you find a studio on a hill overlooking the lake. They have put a lot of attention to detail and thoughtfulness in the experience. They are both incredibly warm and welcoming people and it's clear they care for their guests and each other. I will definitely return. Thank you both!

Great Weekend Getaway
First things first, the owners of The Second Wind are awesome! Frank and Linda were super welcoming, super friendly, and you can tell they just want their guests to have a good time. They were very accomodating, and knowledgeable about the surrounding area. The cabin was clean, well decorated, and the property was awesome! Dock and shoreline access with AWESOME fishing, and if you feel like getting on the water, Frank and Linda have kayaks! Long story short, go stay here! You wont regret it.

Cozy and relaxing
Our hosts Frank and Linda are a delightful couple as we’re the delicious muffins and cookies . We had everything you would expect at a nice hotel including coffee for the Kuerig . Absolutely lovely cabin inside and out . It’s right at the waters edge and there are kayaks and a dock you can use . Nearby Lake House restaurant was very good . Just a 8-10 minute drive . I wish we could have stayed longer and hope to come back again - Mike and Pam

Best Stay ever!
Our quiet restful vacation was just that, “A Second Wind.” We were welcomed by the kindest people on the face of this earth, Frank and Linda. The smiles on their faces when we arrived was as large as our get-a-way smiles were. The cabin was fantastic, beautiful, and extremely clean. My eyes about popped out of my head and my tummy was yelling “oh boy,” there was homemade chocolate chip cookies, banana nut muffins, and baklava. Did I mention all this was made from scratch and love? Frank and Linda are rare jewels straight from heaven. I am 62 years old and have never come home from a trip rested and already wanting to go back. This trip has reminded me of the simple days, the days that mankind has forgotten with all the traffic, hustle and bustle of running around, taking care of people, working, etc. If we could only get back to loving our neighbor and basking in the quietness, stillness, beauty of God’s nature. The wind blowing through the tall, tall trees was absolutely breathtaking. While on the back patio facing such beautiful scenery and gorgeous water; I saw three baby deer’s frolicking through the trees. This trip has engraved the longing of new fresh days with less hustle and more rest and relaxation. The log cabin was gorgeous, and every little detail is built with love from Frank and Linda. And, the view is unbelievable. Also, some of Frank’s own pieces he carves out of wood and are beautiful to buy. Bring cash, if you would like to buy something hand made!

By far the most Pleasant stay of all the weekend getaways I have experienced. Mrs Linda and Frank are Best. The Ccokies and muffins are 5 star quality that awaits you upon arrival. Million dollar lake front view and the wildlife is Gods gift to all that is fortunate to witness. Will be returning in the near future and I highly recommend this hidden gem at the Lake O Pines. May God continues his Blessings upon Linda and Frank and do yourself a favor and make plans for your next getaway 🙏

got my second wind
My husband and I needed to get totally away for a few days. The property was everything it said and then some. We will definitely put this on our return list. Even got to do some kayaking for the first time. I'd love to come back in cooler weather so I can enjoy the firepit. For this time, sitting on the deck in the morning listening to the lake sounds, drinking my coffee was heaven. Frank and Linda were wonderful.

Small dog friendly
I visited with my spouse and dog. Hosts have gone above and beyond for the property. You are about 15-20 minutes min. from restaurants and grocers, so plan ahead, but hosts have you covered for the basics; salt, pepper, ice, kitchenware... and then some not-so-basics, like popcorn with different flavoring shakers, butter, sodas. Even the dog wasn't left out- Frank came back with a treat bag! You won't need sweets- Linda's baking is stellar and I already miss it. They provide the basic hotel amenities and then some- there was good lotion, which I had forgotten and was very grateful for. Firepit has plenty of wood (though it wasn't covered when we were there, so if you are there during a rainy time you may want a backup.) The combination of the grill and firepit is a real bonus. They keep all the grilling kit clean/bagged. The AC and fan are sufficient, there's a patio fan as well and the patio and furniture is kept very clean. There are 2 stable, standard kayaks with lifevests and they really made the trip for me. Lakefront and lake kept clean- the best part of the place. Bring cash if you like wood art- there's plenty, reasonably priced. Cabin accessible; there are wheelchair ramps and paving to the patio (but the lake is too far/on public land for that.) Fantastic for those seeking a tame outdoor retreat (with wi-fi, no TV). Kind hosts definitely want you to relax and enjoy your stay and check in to make sure you have what you need without being intrusive.

This was a weekend away for my wife and I.
Communication with the property owners was extremely open and fluid. The stay did not turn out as we had planned but that was due to sever inclement weather that caused major power outages etc.. After seeing the property we do intend to book it again.
