Outstanding stay! Alan was an amazing host and the rooms were beautifully appointed. Every detail of the grounds were perfect…. The Weeping Willow tree, the hot tub, the community living are we’re all just outstanding! A 20 min beach walk to town, it was a delightful experience.

My wife and I stayed in a room in the lodge. It was very comfortable. Alan welcomed us and when we asked for a second night, he was able to juggle the rooms so we could stay. We were close enough to town to walk to plenty of eateries and bars and the lake. Alan also provided loads of information about what to do and where to go while in the area.
