Lake house
My main complaint was the listing said basic soaps To me that should include shower soap- all other places I have stayed have as well as shampoos We arrived at the property at 10 pm and had to go out to the store to buy soap so we could all shower in the morning That was the major disappointment. Otherwise the house is spacious and well kept

Guys trip
Went in October for a trip with some old friends. Property was beautiful. Plenty of space for 7 of us. Wrap around deck over looking the lake was awesome. Kitchen and grill met all of our needs. The owner was very accommodating and responsive. Would highly recommend this property for a large group.

Perfect for our extended family attending a wedding
Plenty of bedrooms, dining and sitting areas for our family group of 12 adults and 1 child. The well appointed kitchen allowed us to prepare meals for all of us. Walking distance to Emerson park. It is an older house with great charm and plenty of porch space. It is in the process of updating not reflected in site photos. Recommend if attending a wedding at Emerson Park!

Great place to stay
We stayed here Labor Day weekend with a group of 12 people. The location is great and the house has lots of room inside and outside. The owner is working to update the house and it is evident throughout the house. They were very responsive to questions and we would definitely stay here again.

Perfect spot
Five of my women friends and I stayed at this beautiful home for a long weekend. It was the perfect spot for us to relax, catch up with each other and have a great time. The front porch overlooking the lake was the perfect place to spend a good amount of our time. The house is large and beautiful. We had everything we needed.

Bachelorette weekend
10 of us stayed here for a bachelorette weekend. We were all able to have our own comfortable bed and what felt like our own bathrooms. Perfect place for what we needed it to accomplish. Huge yard and right across the road from the lake. Host was very responsive with any questions
