Summary: This was a perfect vacation! As soon as we opened the door I knew this house was it! The beautiful hardwood floors, the windows overlooking the lake, the beams and character the house has is wonderful. Kitchen fully stocked with everything you need to cook meals, the beds and trundle beds were comfy and the water pressure in the shower was spot on! Campfires with s’mores around the fire pit was roomy and the dock was very accessible getting off and on the boat. Views were stunning and we enjoyed watching the Eagle. I could say more… we were truly impressed and will definitely be back! Shawn was an amazing host too. You won’t go wrong and I hope you appreciate this lovely home as much as we did!
