We rented this home to celebrate our parents 50th wedding anniversary. There were 15 of us, ranging from ages 14-69. The house provided most of what we needed for our stay... a bed for everyone and multiple bathrooms. The house stays true to its age and authenticity, meaning little to no updates, and leans more towards the "rustic" side. (No dishwasher, washer/dryer, etc, small bathrooms, etc... which was fine by us.) If you want to keep a fire going, be sure to purchase and/or bring lots of firewood. We loved the lake views and the large family gathering rooms! No need to bring bottled water, as the well water is delicious! We thoroughly enjoyed the location, size, character, and comfort of this beautiful home!
