The South Down neighborhood is such a great spot on the lake and this house is perfectly located close to the water/ beach, the docks and the green belt. Large, spacious house with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. It was perfect for our large family and some friends. Owners are very responsive and accommodating and even left a welcome gift. Would def stay again! ##### Erica N. Stayed 9 nights in Jul 2022
