This house is lovely! Right away it felt warm, cozy, and welcoming. Lots of seating is available in the living room for everyone to relax. The beds were all comfortable (according to my teenage sons, my husband, and me). We spent a ton of time kayaking on the lake - it's stunning both rain or shine. There are beautiful trails to hike within a very short drive. This is the perfect place for people who want to be surrounded by nature. There are houses nearby, but you can't see your neighbors (or hear them). It rained quite a bit, so we spent a few evenings around the fire, playing games, doing puzzles, and watching movies. On the clear evenings, we all sat on the porch and looked up at the stars. If it wasn't raining, we sat around the propane firepit with a drink or tea. On clear nights there was barely any light pollution (new moon helped) and the Milky Way was just overhead. Gorgeous star gazing. We saw countless shooting stars with the loons singing in the background. This was the perfect nature getaway that we needed. I don't think the photos do the lake justice. It's magnificent! A quick kayak across the lake and you are on a secluded beach that's part of a national park. Nobody but you and the peace and quiet of the day. We would definitely like to come back to this beautiful place. Thank you!!!
