We had a great time even know the weather was not perfect. This property comes well stocked and has lots of extras to keep you having fun. Close to a couple of local places to eat and get a few groceries, firewood etc. I would rent this property again.Thank you for the stay.

Family Fun Great clean and safe neighborhood. Very nice view of the lake with level lake access that was great for kids and adults. The owners provided yard games and a canoe for good family enjoyment. A large deck with an outdoor kitchen was also super nice with a well stocked indoor kitchen.

Family Summer Vacation My family has rented the same lake cabin in Newberry for several years, but this year we decided to stay closer to home. If you’re like me, you read every review to find that perfect place. Although it didn’t have many reviews, we took a chance and I’m so happy we did! The place was perfect! It is fully stocked, as many rental homes you’re left with stocking everything from dish soap to toilet paper. This place had kayaks, tubes, hot tub, cornhole, and more! The owners were quick to respond and the check-in process was easy! We will definitely keep this on our return list for next year.
