Summary: Beautiful setting, and lovely log home. Being able to look out and and enjoy the view of lake was very relaxing. Grandkids loved to be able to fish on the dock and out of pontoon. Kayaks and paddle boards were in excellent condition and fun to take out on the calm lake. Ping pong in downstairs was enjoyed. Thank you Tammy for being a fantastic host.
