Family vacation

We used this property for a vacation with our adult children and their families. The location on the lake was ideal for swimming and kayaking for all ages. The boat dock was a nice place to hang out and was perfect for docking our own boat The house has separate entertainment areas suitable for different ages groups. We also used and enjoyed the nice fire pit. This place was ideal for our family!

A Wonderful experienceE

We stayed with our five children, 3 of their friends, my MIL-11 people in total. It was perfect. We had plenty of rooms and more than ample seating for dining and playing games/watching movies together. The screen porch and dock were spacious enough for all of us. The house was very clean and our hosts were very responsive. We’ll definitely stay here again.
