Awesome
Can you tell your family the property. It’s very comfortable and clean. Great access to the water. The beach is not but still a wonderful, beautiful view and a great big dog to put your boat out. It’s a beautiful neighborhood where we could ride bikes or take a walk. The backyard is beautiful and you can see the sunset. The property manager Carrie was extremely responsive so is the owner Justin. We definitely want to come back next year.

Work trip
We had some work in Amsterdam, instead of staying in a hotel for 9 days we found this amazing location and home, and it was great to get off work and sit on the porch and look at the lake and unwind each night, I highly recommend this place for location and cleanliness.

Perfect family getaway
We loved this house and felt right at home. The property manager was super welcoming and very accommodating. Just a short walk across the yard to a beautiful lake made this a perfect place for us and our kids ages 3,10 and 13. We brought our canoe for fishing and did so each morning of our 6 night stay. Beds were cozy, kitchen was well stocked. We could not have asked for a better stay and cant wait to return each time we visit our family in the area. Thank you Justin and Kerry!
