Our stay was largely positive, especially considering the needs of our sizable group. The cabin comfortably accommodated our family of 7 adults and 3 young children, though I'd hesitate to recommend adding more adults despite the extra bunk beds. The children had limited space, with only the porch area suitable for crawling.
The location was a highlight, a manageable drive of less than 2 hours. The 2-acre property offered a sense of seclusion and privacy. The master bedroom suite was a standout, presenting itself as brand new, spacious, and exceedingly comfortable.
Outdoor amenities were a mix of hits and slight misses. The double firepits were a delightful touch. The woodburning firepit provided a traditional campfire experience, while the gas firepit offered a quick and cozy alternative. We were well-equipped in the kitchen. The tuck-under garage was a practical feature, making the loading and unloading of our gear and supplies a breeze.
The lake was a visual treat and beckoned us to partake in water activities. We came prepared with paddle boards, and the availability of kayaks and a canoe was a nice touch. However, the absence of a pontoon or boat was felt. A slight downside was the beach area, which was somewhat weedy and not ideal for swimming.
In summary, the property met most of our expectations and provided our family with a comfortable and memorable stay. The few areas of improvement did not significantly detract from our overall experience.
