Vandailia home
This home was very nice! If it had been summer, perfect with the water right there and shallow. We stayed for our daughter's wedding at nearby Gable Hill. The only issue we had was the element on the hot water heater went out, so no hot water. However, the owner sent Mike over to fix it and he took care of it!

Great Family Vacation.
We love being on the lake! The house was spacious with plenty of sleeping spaces. The lake front was great. The water was shallow with firm sand. The owners were very responsive to all our requests.

Great Location!
Create place for a family vacation! A large home on a beautiful lake. Any issues that arose were handled immediately by the owners. I would let future travelers know that the shower in the master bath is extremely small and that the kitchen is fully equipped but definitely not organized. Would definitely recommend the property!
