Great Family Friendly Resort
This is a great place to bring a family for a get away. There are many things to do on the resort and the surrounding area. They also have a boat dock where you can bring your boat or rent one of their 14' aluminum boats or rent a larger boat from Brian's Marina up the road. I highly recommend this destination.

Long weekend getaway
Memorial weekend stay with the family. Was a nice area and cabin was equipped with everything we needed. The only tough thing is that my husband is 6’3” so the cabin was a bit of a tight fit for him especially the bathroom/shower. Lots of amenities that unfortunately we weren’t able to take advantage of because the weather wasn’t the greatest. Host was great and readily available

Wonderful family getaway
We stayed at the property for 4 nights and 5 days. Tom (the owner) stopped by on day of check in to make sure we had all we needed. We loved the close access to water and beach and the kids were up and swimming within minutes of waking each day! The shared ammenities of the fire pit, dock and playscape was great! The cabin was well stocked and.EXTREMELY clean upon arrival. We will definitely stay here again!

Exactly as advertised
This was the perfect getaway for the four of us. What really stood out was the cleanliness. We’ve stayed in quite a few similar places and this by far was the cleanest. You assume there will be a certain amount of cobwebs and/or crawling critters but we experienced none. That was a first.
We will return for future visits.

Beautiful spot for a Family reunion
We rented out the entire Resort for a family reunion, including the house. We had brothers and sisters from as far away as Florida, Arizona, Ohio and Michigan gather for this event.
The cabins were clean and the beds comfy. There was shuffleboard, kayaks, paddle boards and small boats with motors.
Great beach area with the lake steps away. Big firepit for the evening was a hit for roasting hot dogs and smores for the kids.
Had a great week.

beautiful beach and lake view!
was as described, wifi and tv streaming could be better, we just watched tv shows on our iPad and used our own data, what was supplied might have reached the dock but you couldn't do anything with it lol! the party store within walking distance had everything we needed plus, awesome pizza breakfast sandwiches and the meat market 5 miles away was unbelievably awesome!

Location is great, cabin is so so
The location is close to the water, easy to get in and out of. Shallow water was great for playing in. The cabin left a lot to be desired. There are NO bedroom doors, making privacy, and varying bedtimes very difficult. The electrical is scary- one light we kept off due to flickering. There are no outlets in the bedrooms so charging phones, white noise, cpap machines aren’t happening. Furniture is not comfortable. Overall, the location is the saving grace of this place. A lot of time, effort and work needs put into the cabins.
