Great house for a friends reunion.

We stayed at the lake house for five nights in October. We had everything we needed! The weather was a mix of rain and sun, and on the rainy days we were perfectly happy to stay home and enjoy the views, the wildlife, the hot tub, and the well stocked kitchen. We appreciated the water pressure and nice hot water in the showers. Plenty of space to hang out and play games or watch movies. Our favorite was probably just hanging out on the deck talking and enjoying the view.

Family Birthday Trip

We stayed at Retreat 1 for our son's birthday. Great location, easy access to water. House was super cute and clean. Nice having master bedroom upstairs and then rest of bedrooms downstairs. Had a great time and Lori and Dave were incredible checking in and answering any questions I had. Definitely will be coming back again. We already booked another of their homes for next weekend.

Great walking distance to the marina to watch the boats and get some ice cream with the kids. Would definitely love to come back and rent a boat next time. Dave & Lori were great and friendly hosts.
