The house was perfect for our family of four. I could not have planned a better location for a vacation. Quiet on a dead end path within a drive of all the conveniences.The large uncovered lakeside windows let in bright sunlight to bask. We spent mornings doing our schoolwork at the large family style dining table. The view was unspoiled open water. The telescope was a great perk to watch the swam family that lives on the lake and the night sky stars. There is a well used channel on the side of the house. The watercraft operators were small town type friendly (I think our girls greeted every single one they saw) and they followed the no wake zone rules. We took the kayaks out often and saw otters, blue heron, frogs, turtles, a swan family nest, and tons of fish visible from the surface. Our girls swam from the beach area daily- shallow enough to feel confident but stretched out deep enough to jump from the platform. We had a hot dog and s'mores night at the fire ring, listening to the frogs and watching the stars. Enjoyable days and nights. Inside felt like a real home. The beds were comfortable and everything cleaned immaculately. The household items supplied were abundant- towels, dishes, life vests, etc. about everything I could think to look for was available. We contacted the hosts after some property damage to their platform by the annual lake swim race and Russ and his son came right over to check it out and fixed it up. Will be back.
