Guys fishing trip
My husband and his friend went on a two day fishing trip and this place did not disappoint! From the ease of communication with the owner, simple check in and check out procedures, a few trophy catches, and a comfortable layout made this the best fishing trip my husband has been on yet. Looking forward to bringing our entire family next time! Thank you Keith!

Beautiful location.
The pictures were mostly accurate but do show much more light in the living room than we had; I believe the trees have grown a lot since the pictures were taken. We loved sitting on the deck and at the beach. We were not able to borrow life jackets and so did not try the kayaks. However, it was clear before we made reservations that we would have to provide our own life jackets. We did not see the birds that are mentioned in the write up. In fact, we were surprised at how few birds we saw at the lake or walking around outside. Perhaps it was just our particular week. We did not try the window air conditioner units. Note that you need a smart phone to use the 2nd floor A/C unit. I don't know about the first floor. The Wi-Fi was good. Lots of kitchen equipment as well as a Weber grill outside.
