Fantastic retreat!
The cabin was clean, organized, and full of thoughtful amenities and conveniences. Everything in the kitchen was stocked and labeled. We had five large guys and we slept well and had ample room to enjoy hanging out together or spending time on our own. The lake provided some fishing fun and beautiful views. We saw some fresh-water jellyfish. Perry cool! We would highly recommend this spot and will be booking again!

Brethren Lakehouse
Overall the lakehouse was exactly what we wanted. We loved having the kayaks to play around on in the lake and the bikes to ride around town. We'd stay here again and recommend to friends and family.
