We rented this home to house grandparents and aunts and uncles for a local high school graduation. It is as beautiful as the pictures suggest! The kitchen had lots of room for family to gather and cook, and was thoughtfully stocked with the needed serving items. There were lots of places sit and visit or take in the views of the water. The bedrooms and bathroom spaces were modern and beautifully decorated. There was lots of boat traffic zipping through which we found interesting but not necessarily quiet. The neighbors were not too close and although they too were enjoying the outdoors keep to themselves other than a courteous wave.

The property is so big and spacious that the kids were able to run around freely and enjoy the grassy flat areas. The neighborhood is beautiful and tree lined too for perfect walks. We could stare at the water all day long right from the living room couch or kitchen because of the cool big windows. This place is great for a group and definitely a family to celebrate whatever!
We may snow mobile in the winter using this place.
