5/5 Beautiful view from this property. The sunset was spectacular during late summer early fall. Nice big living room to hang out together with family and friends. Lots of activities for outdoor and indoor - kayaks, firepit, bumper pool table, game room for kids, lots of games for adults to enjoy as well. Main bedroom is on main level, has queen bed and small closet. Basement has the bonus spacious room with murphy bed, very comfy. The only bathroom with shower is in basement, so there is only 1 shower in the house. Upstairs is great space for kids. Kitchen is small but functional, fully stocked for cooking and grilling. Full coffee bar with keurig, kcups and regular coffee maker. We enjoyed dinners on the upper deck while watching the sunset and boats go back. Lower deck is very comfy as well great for hanging out. As a bonus, we were able to see the fireworks at the property from the Dinghy restaurant from across the lake. The view from the dock or by the fire is perfect to see the fireworks.I would book this property again.

5/5 Great lake views and the house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. It was also nice to have access to a washer and dryer. We enjoyed some beautiful sunsets from the deck. Communication with the property manager was easy and prompt.

Gorgeous sunsets
5/5 Homey and comfortable- the house had everything we needed with a nice, large kitchen. Everything was exactly as pictured. Right on the water with so much outdoor space! We had plenty of space to spread out inside-and the bar area and game room was a fun bonus. The sunsets were gorgeous and we enjoyed watching the eagles fly overhead. Close to shopping and restaurants. Would rent again!
