Quiet Oasis
This is the second time we've stayed at the Nautical Nook. We really appreciate the quiet location, the screened-in patio, well-kept lawn and dock area. It's a comfortable home and great place to relax for a few days.

Nature’s View
The Nautical Nook is very special. It is a quaint house very close to the water. The swimming area is for all ages and the dock was wonderful to sit and relax on. We also enjoyed having our morning coffee on the screened in porch - it’s a great feature. The house was very clean and met all of our needs. Thank you so much for letting our dog vacation with us. We loved our stay! We hope to go back next year. 😊

Great Stay
We had so much fun at nautical nook! Dock was fabulous and the on property boat launch was so convenient since we brought our boat with us. Nice yard with a fire pit. Screened in porch was great to enjoy meals outside without dealing bugs. This property also has weekly trash pick up (not all SML rentals offer this service) which is awesome!! Would definitely stay again!!

Not good place for older family
Only one way into the house, big step up & down, not good for elderly. Animal poop on porch; lots of ticks. Not worth all the fees.

Fabulous lake property
Fabulous lake property Accurate description of the house, very small but perfect for a couple or small family. The screened in porch was fantastic and the view was beautiful . Such a short walk to a beautiful dock . Perfect location in a very quiet community. We love the property so much that we have already booked a week for next summer.
