Great Lake, Great Retreat
When we first pulled into the driveway we were greeted by not one or two but seven deer grazing on the property. This told us everything we needed to know about the property. Peace and quiet, beautiful views, close enough to the lake we could hear the fish jumping. Open concept layout allowed everyone in our party to be comfortable but close enough to be included. Very clean, nicely furnished we thoroughly enjoyed our week there. Close enough to everything we wished to do without driving half a day. A 5 star accommodation in our opinion! Thank you Ramseys!

Lot's of Fun!
Located in a quiet no-wake cove making the lake very good for swimming. The house is in a very quiet off the beat location. The street through the neighborhood is bike friendly! Beautiful view! This was our second stay at the property and will book this location again in the future.
