What Our Guests Say

"We stayed for our family Thanksgiving vacation and absolutely loved it! From being right on the water, to taking peaceful bike rides, visiting the local parks — everything felt like a hidden gem. The cabin was older but very clean, cozy, and well taken care of."

"Beautiful location — right on the water and very quiet. Our cabin was partially updated; kitchen had everything you could want and the entire cabin was spotless. We really enjoyed the screened-in deck. You pay for the location and for us, it was well worth the price."

"The situation of these villas is otherworldly. You're perched on the side of a lake filled with wildlife flying, floating and swimming. The light is so beautiful. Cabins are generous and the welcome is second to none. Free canoes available to explore the gorgeous surrounding tributaries."
