5/5 Perfect. Great location, comfortable cabin with anything you’d need.

Quiet spot right on the lake
5/5 It’s a camp. That means it’s less “bougie” than a motel or whatever. That said, I’ve been spending lake time in a camp all my life, and this one is really nice. You can drive to it (some of the camps on this lake are boat access only), it has a yard, an outdoor grill, a dock, a canoe, a kayak, a paddle board, and two bicycles. It has solar-powered electricity with a back-up generator. It has WiFi and TV! The refrigerator was good and cold, the shower water was plentiful and hot, the bed was comfortable.Honestly we had no complaints and we will definitely stay here again. We’ll offer a couple thoughts for those less camp-experienced though: we did run the generator for an hour or two each day, when the solar power ran out. The access road and the driveway are a bit rough and rocky, so 4WD is good. And there are a couple LED lights, but like most camps it can get a little dark.Oh, and the property managers live right down the road, and couldn’t have been more helpful. They gave a nice, half-hour orientation that helped us feel confident about the specifics of how this camp operates.

Manager's Response:
From the owner: "Thank you, Brenda, for your kind words. We appreciate you choosing to stay at our camp."
Nice, relaxing trip!
5/5 Had a very nice, relaxing time. Cabin was clean and organized. The road getting to the cabin was off roading so AWD/4WD SUV/Truck is required. The lake was relaxing, the fire pit was great. The dog loved it. Jerry’s is the grocery store in town and was fantastic. Highly recommend.

Tranquil
5/5 This is exactly what we wanted, peaceful and remote. Great views and amazing property! The owner was so helpful from getting us there to making sure everything was set up. We would go back without hesitation!

Off the grid living
4/5 This is a great getaway for people looking to try that rustic living . The solar is not the most reliable but the generator back up makes it easy to charge the batteries.
