"Great place to come to a getaway for the city life. Amazing views and going out to the private island with a canoe was amazing. I can’t say enough about this place it’s the best place to come and reset. Glad we came here and I will be back again. If you can book the cabins over looking the lake you won’t be disappointed. "
