- "Upon check in we were so impressed with the cleanliness of this property. Even more impressive since this is a pet friendly property. Worth noting that the main entrance is on the upper level (with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom). Master and living space is down the stairs. Our special needs daughter has some mobility issues so we walked her down the small hill to the beach entrance. Not a big deal at all. That master bathroom is AMAZING! I wish I had the opportunity to use the jetted tub (definitely no worries about the “ick” factor with jets as the cleanliness of the rest of the property was reassuring.). The GINORMOUS shower was perfect for accommodating the shower chair my daughter uses when bathing. Kitchen was well stocked but we could have used more variety of pots as we did a fair amount of cooking. We loved the great big table by the window. Tons of linens/towels and even shower products. Now for the main reason I picked this place…the sandy beach. PERFECT!!! The water was so warm and calm. The gentle slope into deeper water made it so easy for my daughter to enjoy the water. The sandy beach was a great place for relaxing and building castles. Very sunny so we set up a pop up canopy for shade which kept us very comfortable. We did spot a turtle it 2 and had a few visitors from a big noisy bird. We usually like to try new areas on our vacations but would definitely consider putting this one on repeat."

Small home with lots of space to relax and reconnect with yourself or your loved ones. Great for a couple's retreat, relaxing honeymoon, anniversary celebration, or just a chance to get away from town and the hustle and bustle of life. The open fields provide plenty of sky to look up at and dream and lots of grass to plant your feet in to get grounded. Your only neighbor is the owners main house with a grassy field in-between and no facing windows. Very private.
Two person outdoor hot tub perfect for star gazing at night. No light pollution. The property is ideal for photographers or artist to build their portfolios or write your next novel. The owners are happy to accommodate for your needs, just ask.
Indoor 2 person Far Infrared Sauna. Massage table available if wellness and health is your focus. Main bedroom has a queen bed with grounding mat.

The area has 2 nearby lakes and 2 single person kayaks or canoe available for rent. Lane is a dead end so no through traffic enhances this private location.

Fishing in the pond by the owners home is available by request- dependent on weather and current activities. Bluegill, Red-ear, and Bass. Catch and release or keep for dinner.

- "We had a lovely stay. The house was so lovely and well equipped with such attention to detail. As we sat on the deck drinking our coffee, we saw osprey, blue heron, coots and turtles. The beds were comfortable. Our only complaint was an oil rig right next to the house. I have sensitive lungs and had some difficulty with the off gassing from the rig." - "Excellent! Beautifully decorated and very clean. I highly recommend this property, we loved our stay."

- "Nice, quiet, clean and cozy" - "The property is conveinient and overall the stay was cozy. This is a 3 bedroom home with 2 bedrooms (with beds) and an office serving little purpose (read carefully.) The couches are small making it less than ideal as a place to sleep for an adult. The house was clean with the exception of the floors which had a lot of small debris requiring guests to wear slippers/shoes. This is a pet friendly home, which was evident by a distinct animal smell in the hall/livingroom. Communication and check-in was fantastic. With a few minor changes, I would give the rating an extra star."

- "Cute and clean lake home. The game room provided activities for all ages. Taught some kids how to play pool and darts. Ample sleeping space. Kids had fun casting off the dock. So nice to have a private boat launch so close. Spent hours on the lake tubing and skiing. Our group of 10 had a blast." - "This was our 2nd visit to this home. My husbands family resides in Centralia. This home allows us to visit with plenty of space for us while not crowding our families homes. Everything at this home was great. This time we did not rent the boat so it was a bit hot as you really cant go in the water near the home. I did not rate full stars for cleanliness. This was only because of the outside. The grill was extremely dirty and we spent time cleaning it last time we stayed at this home, so we skipped grilling out this time. There was no place (hole) in the table to set the umbrella, and the deck was full of debris. I kept wishing there was a deck broom available as i would have been more than happy to sweep off the deck. Other than that the inside of the home was very clean and had everything you needed to cook meals. My only suggestion is more forks available. Thank you for sharing your home."
