    The cabin is terrific. The beds are comfortable; it is stocked with everything you need; the appliances are great including washer and dryer; it’s a short gently sloped walk to the dock; the view of the lake is excellent; there is nice nighttime dock lighting; and the sunrises are amazing. Sheila and Jeffrey responded immediately to a question we had and they were extremely helpful. Yes the neighbor dogs try to visit but we just told them to go home and they did. The outdoor picnic table and fire pit area is very nice. We stayed 7 nights and we’d stay there again sometime.

    Check was good, easy. Wasn’t crazy about sanitizing the silverware, thought it should have been ready for us to use. Also need new non-stick fry pan, cheap ones at the humane society antiques. Loved the view and water front, so pretty. Paddle boat didn’t look like it had been used in awhile…so dirty and thrown up on the bank, hard to get in the water so we didn’t bother. Maybe take off description. Neighbors dogs were barky and did come over to relieve themselves.

    Thanks for the feedback, We’ll be ordering new pans and have already reached out to animal control about the dogs. Just a heads up, the sanitizing silverware sign is a county requirement and doesn’t reflect the cleanliness of the silverware itself. Thanks for your understanding!

    We really enjoyed the property!! It was a great cozy lake cabin. We enjoyed the kayaks and the dock and it was great being so close to the lake. The cabin was very nicely furnished and the kitchen well maintained and clean.

    Our family loved being right on the water. The dock was nice and the kayaks were great to use. The water was clean and great for swimming. We loved the attention to detail of the various amenities of the cabin which made for a nice, fun family trip.
