Family Fun Weekend

Overall, the experience was pleasant. Beautiful views, plenty of seating, and all the amenities that one would expect from a lake house. However, the Wi-Fi was extremely unreliable which made very difficult to watch a movie with the family.

5 cousins retreat

Good house for 5 men. Fair number of stairs to dock but negotiable. Could use more lighting in kitchen. Had to use a flashlight to see stove controls. Great covered porch overlooking water and nice boathouse. All in all a good spot.
