Cute and relaxing
We could not have been more happy with the property and amenities. We felt very much at home at this cute little lake house . So much charm with the retro feel and unique staircase . The screened in porch was a favorite spot , and the peddle boat saw everyone in our party. Highly recommend for a getaway.

Quiet getaway!
We overall had an amazing time! Very quiet and secluded area. Everything was a good ways out so highly recommend having everything you need before getting back. - no washer or dryer either (closest laundromat is 25mins away).

A Bit Disappointed
Location was quiet and peaceful. Floors very uneven in house throughout. Shower small and tight. Light switches were difficult to figure out what worked what and where! Light switch in one bedroom worked lights in one other bedroom. Kitchen ceiling light switch was not found at all. Gas grill had not been cleaned so we did not use it. Steep bank down to dock, difficult to navigate even with rocks they had placed as walk way. Just disappointed as the location was so serene.

Secluded and peaceful from communication.
The property for the six of us was as described and enjoyed by all of us. Except my wife and I had no cell phone service through T-Mobile to even text or call The Host that we were leaving but the whole town seemed that way as well. The other two couples had cell phone service.

Cabin on the lake
Cute cabin on Elmer Davis Lake. Suited our needs just fine. We are two fisherman who wanted to fish and stay on the lake so we wouldn’t have to take the boat out each evening. Has a nice flat yard long enough to set up our boards and play some cornhole. Met Donald, a very kind and helpful neighbor. We enjoyed our stay

What a gem
If you are looking for a quiet relaxing stay with no outside noise from the world....This is it!. Turn those phones off as well as the nasty news and just enjoy life. This property felt like home, like my childhood. So very cozy and beautiful. Getting out on the lake and just enjoying the beautiful scenery was so nice. Thank you for sharing this home. We had an absolutely wonder vacation. Side note: the Ark encounter was fabulous also the crystal clear kayaking the gorge was an oustanding experience as well. If i could give a higher rating i would. :)

Nice and easy but needs a little sprucing up.
An adventure. It is not toddler friendly.
