Great Family Vacation
The house was perfect for our family (9 adults and 5 kids). The lake, beach, dock, and fire pit were great hang out spots. Jennifer was an amazing host who answered all my questions prior to the trip and ensured we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend this house to all of my family and friends!

Fantastic getaway
Loved the house and location!!! Every night was a sunset view from the dock. Kids loved playing in the sand and searching for shells in the shallow, crystal clear water. Boat and kayak rental were close. We will definitely be renting again!!!
