What an amazing stay! We needed a quiet getaway and this place was perfect. It was very clean, comfortable, private, and peaceful. We loved the easy lake access, the kayaks, the mature oaks, fire pit, fishing gear, and more. The owner, Mike, even let us borrow his golf cart to move around the property. What a great place to recharge. We will definitely be back.
