The house and property were perfect. The owners do a great job maintaining and stocking the house. Being able to put the boat on the lift in the enclosed boathouse was a huge plus especially since it snowed on the first full day there. The property is perfectly located close to town but yet very separated, quiet and peaceful.

Great place to stay the house was clean. They had extra blankets and pillows. The kitchen was stocked better than any place we’ve ever stayed and thank you for that. Loved the boat house and outside screened in porch and sitting area. The house I would rate a 10 and not a 5 star if I could rate it that way. Would highly recommended this place. It was also quite and peaceful.
