My husband and I were looking for a secluded property for much needed relaxation. When I saw the private lake in the middle of 100 acres, I knew I found the right place. It is absolutely breathtaking. We had guests for dinner one night and after dinner we all enjoyed a campfire in the fire pit located by the water. We also enjoyed the hot tub every morning before we ate breakfast on the amazing deck. If you are looking for a secluded spot that has a lot of ambiance, this is it! You couldn’t ask for a better host. Andy was amazing to work with. ❤️❤️

This is our second stay at this lovely, expertly maintained property. Last time, in my review, I mentioned that the in-line water heater could be warmer, and they listened. The shower was perfect.
The weather was stormy during our stay, but you can't beat the beautiful view and the sound of the rain on the metal roof. We had to get used to the acorns falling - they're loud lol.
Thank you, Andy and team, for another unforgettable couple's retreat. We left something behind, and he offered to ship it back to us at no cost. So nice of him. He also left us a little thank you gift for being a repeat customer. What a lovely and thoughtful touch. We had a blast - thank you, Andy!
From the owner: "Viki, thank you so much for staying with us again, and for the great review! We're so appreciative and grateful to have you as a repeat guest, and we're looking forward to having you back again next time!"
We loved the serenity! Very quiet and peaceful. Enjoyed sitting on the deck overlooking the water. Loved the hot tub and the fire pit at night. Will definitely go back!

Loved the seclusion, walking the many trails, the hot tub and relaxing, reading, eating and playing games and grilling on the deck. Even though the temperature was in the 80s and sunny the deck is shaded with trees so was very comfortable! Plus sitting around the fire pit was great. We wish we would have brought fishing poles cuz the fish were jumping.
Fantastic place to get away and enjoy incredible scenery and serenity. Beautiful lake, comfy cabin surrounded by nature
