Great cozy little cabins for a group getaway. We were able to secure all 5 cabins for our group. The communal picnic area, dock, and firepit was great for our gathering. Owners clearly outlined what to expect coming to the lake, including a reminder to bring warm clothes for night time. Would definitely stay again. ##### Sarah S.
