Beautiful lakeside spot!

The place has been beautifully re-done inside, recently. Very clean and comfortable. The lake is right there - easy access, out in it or from the window inside. Two of us stayed there and we had one guest overnight one night, quite comfortable for everyone. We hope to return!

Lovely spot on the lake

This place has 4 units all hooked together. The area facing the lake is a common area for all the units but you do have your own front porch and fire pit to sit at. We wanted privacy so we were lucky that people left and we had the place to ourselves for a few of the days. The only complaint is that it is very noisy when people are in their unit. You can hear everything!
