Perfect home for a family gathering. The dock was excellent with plenty of water toys; pool table was a hit along with the variety of indoor games; the screened in porch was awesome and so important to keeping out flying critters.

Our family of 8 adults had a wonderful stay! The house has everything you could possibly want or need in the kitchen. The two dishwashers and oversized fridge was a nice surprise. We spent our whole day on the dock playing cards, kayaking and paddle boarding. Definitely considering coming back next year.

Spacious and inviting home

We enjoyed our stay for the 2nd time there for my extended family. We love the setting on the lake and rented a boat and spent a lot of the time in the water or relaxing on the property. It accommodated our large group well and Shannon is a great host, willing to do whatever to ensure we have a great experience.. Don’t hesitate, book it before someone else.

The home was large, plenty of space to spread out but allow families to play, relax, and spend plenty of time together playing games, cards, pool table, ping pong, and air hockey! We even had basic staples in kitchen cabinets, so we left papergoods to help out also! It was so beautiful to fish on the dock and sit beside fire pit <3
