  • Amazing views & lots of wildlife

    5/5

    We had a great time considering it rained most of the time. We enjoyed the amazing view of the lake and lots of wildlife! There were numerous geese the first day in the morning and then again in the afternoon/evening. On the 2nd day the adult geese showed up with a whole flock of baby geese! There must have been about 25 babies! So cute. There were Sandhill cranes, red-headed woodpeckers, racoons and squirrels! Had a great time! Will be back!

    Thanks!

  • Fall Hunting Trip

    3/5

    Great for a hunting group! The heat is set to 48 degrees so it was a cold first night but otherwise good for our group.

    Manager's Response:

    Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We're happy to hear that our property worked well for your hunting group, and we're glad to know that, overall, your stay was enjoyable.

    We apologize for the discomfort caused by the temperature on your first night.
    We typically set the heat lower when the property is not in use to help conserve energy, but we understand that it may have felt too chilly when you first arrived. Going forward, we'll ensure to better communicate how to adjust the temperature right away to suit your needs. It typically warms up to the set temperature within about 10 minutes. Additionally, we are working on an upgrade to allow for remote adjustments, so we can have everything set and ready for our guests in the future.

    Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you and your group again on future trips.

  • Great weekend getaway!

    5/5

    Cozy lake house. Large yard, perfect for yard games, grilling, or a fire around the fire pit. Bonus that yard games, a grill, and the fire pit are all provided!

    Additionally, having access to the kayaks and life jackets was fantastic. And the neighborhood cats (Jack Jack & Tig) were a big hit with our son!
