We loved the beautiful landscaping and sitting on the deck watching the wildlife. The location is very convenient to several springs, hiking and the grocery store. The host is quick to respond to questions and he answered my phone call immediately when I thought I was lost. Being able to bring our two little dogs was a huge plus. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful Lake House Stay
We had a wonderful time at this property. Jake was very accommodating and quick to respond to any questions i had. We loved the kayaks available to use and the property was private and secluded.
