Great fishing as well in season. We are actually in one of the best areas to fish, right near Little River and Spring Creek! Eat s'mores by the campfire at the beach and watch AMAZING sunsets! String Light courtyard, privacy, and plenty of room to stretch out! SO much to do!

CLEANING FEE DISCLAIMER:  We are disenchanted that we have a pass-through cleaning fee so high these days but with everything going on in the country with higher costs and labor shortages, this is our new reality. We understand that when this fee is split by the large groups that is nominal per-person but we want you to know our hearts are that we wish it wasn’t so high regardless of that.  It is a very large house to turn over in such a short amount of time and weekend help is extremely hard to find help.  We only have 880 people that live here so we have to be the highest paid to retain the best and they are AWESOME!  Conversely, we are pleased to remind you that we have so much included with this property.  Unlimited firewood, propane for grill and gas fire pit, all the coffee supplies you need except coffee.  All sweeteners, powdered creamer, filters and we have a selection of tea.  We have spices and oils galore.  You don’t need to bring trash bags or paper goods either.  We stock enough for your entire stay, not just a starter amount.  Bathroom and facial tissues, paper towels, trash bags, napkins, salt and pepper shakers, dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent, aluminum foil, assorted sizes of zip lock bags, plastic Saran-type wrap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, bar soap, Q-tips, cotton balls, filled hand soap dispensers throughout, kitchen sponges and Dawn dishwashing liquid.  We have first aid kits.  We have hospitality boxes with all sorts of things you and your guests may forget.  There is a huge list of everything stocked for you if you would like us to send to you.  Our guests have told us in reviews that all they need to bring is food and clothes.  One last thing on cleaning:  If you are going to check out on a weekday, please inquire if there will be a break in this fee. There is no way for us to separate it out so we would be happy to address on a case by case if you initiate. We are so thankful you are considering booking this AMAZING property.

Humbly,

Dave, Ann and our AMAZING Team
