This was a grandma-sponsored vacation for her kids & grandkids. We all live within 20 minutes of Atwood Lake. Rather than travel somewhere distant and struggle to spend quality time in restaurants and hotel rooms, we opted to stay local and find somewhere that was large enough to let us spend the weekend as if we were in our own home.
This house was perfect for our family! 6 adults, 3 kids & 2 dogs had a lovely time together, made even better by finding a home big enough to hold us all.
Nice, clean place in a quiet little neighborhood by the lake.
We didn’t have a chance to visit the private beach, but we did use the golf cart to take the kids down to the nearby park a few times.
We spent a day on the lake; we rented a pontoon for the day from the West Marina. It is on the opposite side of the lake, but easy to get to within 10 minutes.
There was a nice gas grill for our steak night and a fire circle in the front yard for making s’mores. We were thankful for the extra folding camping chairs for sitting around the fire, as 8 out of 9 people forgot to bring one.
There were thoughtful backup supplies for commonly used items & we were pleasantly surprised by the games & toys available to keep the little ones amused.
The bunk room for the kids was a definite plus!
I communicated with the owner a few times before the trip, just with some normal questions & he was very responsive with replying.
A+ weekend, we will definitely be back next year!
