Loved the location, the back yard was lovely. Cabin was beautiful, with all the rooms well appointed. Short walk to the lake, Gar Woods, mini golf, etc. We would definitely stay here again!

Great stay!
We had a great time! We stayed over Easter and arrived to a cozy winter wonderland. The warm fire was on awaiting us and the house was nice and clean. The appliances all seemed brand new and the back yard was great for the kids to play in even full of snow. Great distance to enjoy Garwoods and Kings beach for dinners out.
