Summary: The house is beautiful! We were in town for a bass tournament. IF you are pulling a 21ft boat/trailer or longer, you will need to BACK the trailer in from the highway unless they widen the circle drive. Lots of room, lots of parking, super comfortable beds, plenty of hot water, beautiful scenery and FANTASTIC host! 10/10 would recommend and most likely will stay again.
