9/10 Wonderful! (985 reviews)
"Meticulously clean. Professional friendly staff. Good kitchenette. Was nice to have a private outdoor area. Didn’t love having a disabled shower as water goes everywhere but price was cheaper so good tradeoff. Good location close to lake and town. Would definitely stay again."
