Summary: Two young families holidaying at the lake and a wonderful time was had. Great location, great amenities and indoor outdoor space for the kids to roam. Communication was clear and Todd went above and beyond to ensure we knew about a planned power outage during our stay. 10/10 would stay again :)

Summary: It was more than scheduled , confortable, clean all the device were in perfect “ condition “. ( vade-mecum cleaner!, wash machine ( clothe and dish one, not the same…) toaster eeg.., everything we had was perfect . The liment thing in my opinion there is nothing in the area ( or we missed it) to eat outside as a restaurant… It was really a good quality for the price , and we can reach all the time the owner for some advices. Warmly recommended if you had some mobility as a car or a motorbike . Jean Marc

Summary: We enjoyed our stay here - the house was beautifully clean and had everything you need. The living room is spacious and the extra TV in the bunk room is a helpful extra. Todd was amazing at communicating, we received all the information we needed about the property in advance and in the property there is a large notice board with loads of helpful information - really thoughtfully put together. Quiet and private location plenty of parking space too.

Summary: Great bach, has everything you need! We really enjoyed our stay here and the hosts were superfriendly! Lots of "extras" in the garage which was like a treasure trove for the kids! Unfortunately we couldn't get the kayaks down to the lake as they would have been too heavy to carry and we couldn't fit them in our car... had an amazing time though and the lake is absolutely divine! Hope to be back sometime!
