Facing west for spectacular sunsets, the home offers nearly 180-degree lake views through oversized picture windows and expansive wraparound porches and decks.

Summary: Our family had a wonderful stay at this lakefront home! It exceeded our expectations, which were already high from the photos! The house was clean and extremely well appointed, with every comfort that the host could think to provide. The rooms and beds were comfortable, and there was plenty of room for the 9 family members who stayed in the house. Having 2 full baths and laundry at a lake house was super convenient. Fair warning, the "sunroom" has windows in 3 sides, so if you're including that in your bedroom count be sure you're bringing someone who can sleep in full sunlight or gets up with the sun! The property is wide so we felt that there was a decent amount of privacy from neighbors when we were on the large deck or hanging out at the fire pit. The water was clean, the swimming area was large, and the water got deep quickly for swimming. The host allowed use of their two paddle boards, which we loved! We would happily return, and highly recommend!
