Crooked Lake Vacay
The only snag (a small one) we had during the week was a leaky gas hose on the grill. Not a big deal since we had brought a Blackstone with us and used that instead. Randy and Amber were very easy to work with and we enjoyed our vacation very much.

This property is very clean and well kept. Lots of room to spread out. Excellent fishing lake. During the week it was like our own private lake. There were very few others using the water.

Nice relaxing vacation
The house and the lake was everything described. The location is about an hour driving to a lot of great cities so we also explored a lot of places. We enjoyed our vacation.
