Great House for a Group
"We stayed here for a long weekend with a large group. The bunk room in the basement fit a lot of people! The house was very comfortable and there was a ton of parking. The views were stunning, we just wish we would have had warmer weather to enjoy it"

"Nice spacious room with a great view of the lake. Totally worth the upgrade to have a balcony with lake view. Comfy bed. Breakfast was included, which is a delivered “box breakfast”. Nice to have it delivered to room, but not a great selection. Pretty “basic” for the cost per night."
