Such a great stay!
My family and I had such a great time at your beautiful lake house. The children loved the kayaks, fishing and swimming in the lake (we all did). The house is impeccably clean, well stocked and very comfortable. We couldn't have asked for more. We definitely want to come back again.

Boating vacation
Another great time at this house. We dodged a few storms and made the best of the Lakes high water table due to the storms that produced a lot of rainfall. Some noticeable changes inside/outside that looked great. For a hot week with a miserably high dew point the house was very cool and comfortable. Already looking forward to next year :)

A Great Place for a Family Gathering
This was the second time I rented this property for the purpose of having my children know who their relatives are. It was a short stay for us this time, however, many family members were able to attend and to enjoy good food and the view from the lovely wrap around deck!
