Great Gathering Spot
The aging Camper Girls decided to Glamp this year and what a great spot we found. Gorgeous lake views, a fire ring for our camper pies and s'mores, a bed for all and running water! We loved it.

Gorgeous views and quiet, peaceful getaway.
Family of 3 enjoyed this beautifully secluded cottage for a long summer weekend. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen contained everything we needed for the weekend. Communication with the owner couldn’t have been smoother or easier. The location was excellent with expansive views of the lake from several rooms. The canoe/kayak equipment was excellent and gave us the opportunity to tour the lake.

Giant Oak Cabin
We enjoyed our time. The cabin fit our needs. Who needs television and Wi-Fi! There was so much to enjoy: the lake, the kayaks and canoes, the fire pit, the books, the games, the stunning sunrises and moon over the lake and the privacy of a clean, well maintained cabin.

Unplugged and peaceful
This property was very peaceful and calming. It's at the end of a road in a point. It has neighbors but, you can't see them or hear them from this place. The house is a little dated, but well kept. No TV or WiFi, just nature and family. We really enjoyed our stay. We saw so many turtles, from snappers to painted, lots of fish, good fishing off the dock, even see carp spawning right on the shoreline of this place. The bird house was full of baby birds, lots of pelicans, geese and goslings, and even a green heron. The kayaks and conoes were a big hit with the family as well. It's nice to not have to bring our own to fully enjoy this lake. The house has everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Kitchen was pretty well stocked with what we needed to cook with. Nice charcoal grill. The beds were nice and comfortable. The hosts were very prompt and courteous. We had a coffee pot stop working and they were there within 20 with another one. All in all, if you want a peaceful place to enjoy nature and relax, this is a great place to stay. We really hope we can stay here again next year when we come to this area.
