Best trip ever!

We enjoyed the lake house and neighbors are so nice! In the other reviews it talks about the drive way being way to steep but we came in at night and it did seem a little steep but when we woke up and saw all the other drive ways ours is just perfect! The place was nice and clean and we enjoyed watching the lightning storm from the deck!

Wow!

Our entire group thoroughly enjoyed out stay at the lakefront property. The property was gorgeous, the view upon arrival was scenic, the kitchen/house was stocked with everythin you need, perfect for a ladies getaway. THE ONLY THING I would keep in mind for future guests is the entrance; the road-to-driveway transition IS SCARY, very steep and very tight. We had two SUVs in our party so we did have room, but it was still scary parking and leaving everytime. That being said, I would come back. Plus my post-stay interaction after leaving a pillow (my bad) was very patient and kind, so that was a .

Quick family getaway

The house was super cute and well stocked, with beautiful views. The downside is that the property is on a hillside and is very steep. People with mobility impairment will have a hard time getting to the dock and back. Also the structure walls ceiling and floor are made of wood so noise travels through the house. The property is super close to the Ark Encounter and we enjoyed watching geese and ducks from the decks. Nearly every day when we left we saw deer and turkeys near the road.

Perfect Family Getaway

We loved this property and the space. It had plenty of rooms, plenty of things to do and we loved the openness of the house and the beautiful view of the lake. It was close to bigger cities and the Ark Encounter/Creation Museum which is the reason for our trip! Would definitly stay here again!

This property was fantastic. The road and driveway are slightly difficult to navigate but our group did just fine driving a mini van as well as a 12 passenger van. The home had everything we needed. The dock and kayaks were a hit with the kids!

Comfortable property

We had a wonderful stay. We arrived at night and it was a little difficult to find the property. We accidentally turned into the house next door before realizing we were in the wrong place. The house was clean and updated with lots of amenities. We have already suggested this property to friends who have plans to visit the area.
