Best for
This property is best for larger families and groups who want to be on the water with true boat convenience, thanks to the private dock, double boat slip, and private ramp/launch.

Travelers who value scenic views and outdoor hangout areas will likely appreciate the lakefront windows, patios, and fire pit.
Travel tips
Because the location is described as remote and quiet, plan to drive for groceries and most dining; the closest listed restaurants are several kilometers away. If you’re bringing a boat, the on-site dock and private ramp make arrivals and departures easier, but it’s still wise to plan fueling and supplies ahead of time. Check-in/out timing is listed as Friday 4pm check-in and Friday 11am check-out.
