Great time for all
They did a wonderful job of making this a stress free vacation. Everything we needed with the exception of food. Wonderful location, breakfast on the deck was prefect Plenty of room for everybody, there was 8 of us. Easily room for 12. We have rented on Big Star Lake for over 30 years and this was clearly the best we have found. Everyone wants to go back next year.
