Stunning lakeside setting with splendid views!
This property is located along a lovely lake and it is a nice place to relax since the neighbouring area is also very private. Therefore, guests are stunned by the views and surroundings of the place. The lake is beautiful and is great for bird watching. Also, guests can swim and ride paddle boats here.

Wonderful and hospitable host
Guests loved their stay particularly because of the host. She was wonderful in helping guests plan all their activities during their stay. In addition, she made fantastic breakfast with love and attention. She would even make gluten free muffins for her guests!

Lovely breakfast filled everyone's tummy
The great breakfast, which was amazingly made by the host, was the highlight of the stay of many guests. It could even be adjusted to accommodate the guests' special dietary needs. There were homemade muffins, eggs, fruits, and granola to name a few. The breakfast was really healthy, fresh, and tasty!
Negative Reviews
negative:
Generally cluttered area
Guests believed a little less clutter would have made this place more comfortable. According to them, there were junk piled almost everywhere around. Bed was also particularly uncomfortable, and there were hair in between the sheets and on the pillows.
negative:
Credit card payment is not accepted
Payment here can only be made through cash. Therefore, a number of previous guests who did not bring enough cash along had a hard time looking for banks so they can withdraw money.
negative:
There is a big dog inside
There is a big dog living inside the property that is owned by the host. The presence of the dog slightly irritated the guests because there was a lot of dog hair on the floor, and the whole house smelled like dog.
