We loved this property. The view of the lake from the front was wonderful. The gazebo out back was beautiful. Our group of 5 and 1 furry friend found everything we needed for this weekend getaway. Thank you to our hosts!

Cozy Cottage
The house and decor was absolutely amazing. A very quaint southern Christmas cottage. We would absolutely stay here again.
The house is as pictured. Well furnished and nicely decorated. Perfect location if you're there to fish. I would definitely stay here again.

Bring a boat!
Pros:
The cabin was adorably decorated and very clean!
Beds were super comfortable with new mattresses.
Lots of extras, including seasonings and some condiments left in the fridge.
Pellet grill was already stocked with pellets and ready to use.
Wifi worked well, cell service was good, and TVs were provided in living room and all three bedrooms.
Cushions were available for the two outside chairs.
Amazing gas stove!! (One of my favorite parts)
Cons:
Yard was very overgrown due to standing water making it impossible to mow, so we couldn't' do any outside activities.
View of the water was by way of other private property. There was no actual access to the water.
Without a boat, there was no way to enjoy the lake. The park down the street had signs saying "no fishing" at any of the piers.
There was no firepit or other good place to have an outdoor fire. We made smores over the stove because of this.
Do NOT open the door for more than a couple seconds after dark!!! On the first night, we opted to move the outside chairs to the carport because the step up onto the rear deck was difficult for my elderly mother. We had the door open long enough to bring a chair through the house to the front and were SWARMED with large gnats. We spent over half an hour killing them all.
