Fun Family Vacation

We had a great stay! Loved the paddle boards and kayaks. The ping pong and bocci ball was a hit with the kids. The Lake was the perfect temperature and very safe for kids on the paddle boards. House clean and well stocked.

Great getaway

Stayed at the Cove property for a long weekend. It was a perfect size for two families with a wonderful outdoor space. Our kids stayed outside playing games and exploring for almost the entire trip. The layout worked great for our group with a big common area and an upstairs area that allowed the kids to have their own space. I look forward to visiting again!

Great house & excellent host!

We really enjoyed our stay. The communication was excellent and they answered my questions very promptly. This house is stocked! From child plates and cups to spices and laundry detergent. We loved taking the kayaks out. The corn hole and bocce was great as well. As with all lakes, the water is a bit low so we had to walk the kayaks out a bit. We saw fish and giant tadpoles in the shallow water which was cool . The AC worked well which was great considering it was 100 degrees. The upstairs has a bedroom with AC but the bunks on the landing area do not so that was pretty hot during the day. They provided a child gate which was great but kiddos can climb to the stairs on the right side if they are persistent. No complaints and we would definitely return and use this host again.

A family Vacation with something for everyone

Modern and comfortable, with all the amenities, well stocked with everything we needed, including lifejackets. Everything in perfect working order. A little warm upstairs, but the window air conditioner helped. The outdoor area with Bocce ball and ping-pong were a real plus.
