This rental property was perfect for our stay, and a great value for the price! The location is absolutely stunning!! Gorgeous lake front property with a dock! We had fires every evening in the fire pit and were pleased to see that there was wood provided. The house was immaculately clean. It is small, but cozy and perfect for our needs. The owners provided wonderful service to us, and they were so thoughtful in all the supplies left for us. The towels, sheets and blankets were all very clean and smelled fresh. Our only complaint was the bedroom that didn't have the attached porch had an uncomfortable mattress. The drive to the cabin we took two different routes. One route was very winding with hair pin curves, but the other route was much smoother and had gorgeous vistas! Overall, we were thrilled with this rental and would happily stay again!!

This little house was perfect for us as we were halfway through our camping vacation. We needed a place to sleep, shower and clean our clothes properly before moving on. The only suggestion is to upgrade your towels. They looked clean but when wet the washcloths were stained and dirty. The new decks were great but wish we had more time to enjoy them and the beautiful view.

Getaway

Curt was a courteous host! He went above and beyond for my friends and I. We had such a great stay, the home was cozy and had everything we would need. There was a variety of board games and streaming services. I highly recommend coming here, in the future I would return to this location.

Great stay away from the hustle and bustle!

A home away from home. Beautiful, clean cabin with a stunning view. The cabin had everything we needed. Curt was a great host. We didn’t need much, but still had great communication with the check-in / check-out process and letting us know that the lake was having work done to it. If we’re ever in the area, we would stay again. Thank you!
