Beautiful property
Beautiful lakeshore property with great views of the lake from many of the rooms and bedrooms. Our family of 14 people had plenty of space to spread out. Two primary suites, bunk room for the grandkids and 3 other bedrooms provided each couple some private space and quiet sleeping. Kitchen well appointed with amazing prep and serving countertops. Lower level hangout space large enough for our group. Only tricky thing was locking/ unlocking the entry doors— had to adjust handle while locking. Enjoyed spacious parking and great curb appeal.Enjoyed the lakeside yard and the hill down to the lake. Outdoor fire pit and hot tub on the listing were not working although that did not affect our plans. .

Beautiful Home
A beautiful home in a lovely location full of wonderful amenities. We really enjoyed time both inside and outside the house. Evening fires on the dogtrot were our favorite.
Clay and Angi were great hosts and easy to communicate with. They made us feel right at home!
The beds were super comfy, and there was room enough for everyone without feeling like we were on top of each other.
We would love to come back again, as the value for a stay of this caliber was excellent!

Company Trip
We stayed at the house for our annual company outing. Clay was amazing to work with from the very beginning. He was very informative and helpful with different things to do in the area. He was very responsive in answering any questions we had. He treated us like family.
We had a group of 10 people and there was plenty of space for everyone. Most of the bedrooms are on one side of the house. The weather was great and we enjoyed being able to sit outside under the shelter. The house is beautiful.
The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. There was ample space for all of our food and drinks. They had all the utensils we needed for cooking. They have thought of everything in this house.
If you have mobility issues going outside to the lake might be a little difficult, the backyard is steep.
A couple days before the trip Clay sends out an email that lists all of the house rules and what to bring and expect. There are things in there such as bringing your own toilet paper etc, but they also explain why they have those rules in place. They are straight forward with what they expect. The rules are common sense. It explained how to operate the equipment and different things in the house. The manifesto was helpful with all the questions we had throughout our stay so we didn't have to bother Clay with the mundane questions. The neighbors are friendly and are right there if there are any questions or concerns about anything.

Excellent for families!!!!
Our family with teenage children absolutely LOVED our stay here. The home is beautiful with great views. The home had everything we needed for kitchen utensils and appliances. The lake was perfect and the kids caught a lot of fish. Grocery stores were close and other convenient restaurants nearby. The owner is very thorough and responds quickly if there were any questions. Our kids asked to return to this property. Highly highly recommend.

Perfect Family Christmas!
We loved our stay here so much. The home has such a unique layout that worked so well for multiple families. Spaces to be all together, but spaces for people to be on their own if they wanted. The kids had an absolute blast running around using their new walkie talkies :) such a gorgeous property- we hope to be back next year! Thank you!!

Beautiful spot for a family reunion
It should be noted that if renting through VRBO, Clay will still have you sign a lease and later (days before arrival) also sign a 12-page operations document. There are some rules not made clear on the VRBO listing when booking that would have been nice to know ahead of time, including bringing all of your disposable items (toilet paper, hand soap, dish soap, paper towels, etc.). We didn't mind, but would have liked to know ahead of booking, and felt the operations document could be made available before booking or key items could have been listed in the VRBO description.
All that being said, we did have a wonderful stay at this house - the rooms were big, everyone had a bed, it was very clean, and the views and property were gorgeous. It's a trip we will all remember forever - thank you to Clay and Angi!

Just a perfect weekend.
5 couples who have been longtime friends. We have been going to VRBOs for over 23 for a fall getaway and this is one of the nicest. I think we spent the most time in the open area between the house and the garage. It’s covered, has a huge fireplace and a beautiful view of the lake.
Everything is meticulously spelled out before we arrived and all our needs were met.
The owners were great to work with.
Hopefully they will let us come back for many years.

What a wonderful stay we had at this property with our adult children and grandchildren. The home and property were even better than advertised. The lake view is breathtaking from so many parts of the house and property.
Easily facilitates comfortable time together and time for personal reflection. Our grandchildren loved the beach. HIGHLY recommend. We can't wait to stay again. .

We’ve be going on Labor Day vacations, between 4 families (11 kids total), for the last 3 years. This house more than accommodated a group of our size and the amenities were perfect for young families. Great outdoor space, big yard, and a sandy beach. Craig and Angi were easy to work with and very accessible. We’d definitely go back!
