Our Story: Family Owned Since the 1940s
Grandpa and Grandma purchased the property and its original fishing cabin in the 1940’s. The property has been handed down from generation to generation with family members visiting and making memories every year. We’re pleased to be able to share this slice of paradise with others.
Several generations pitched in to build the boathouse and the cabin that is now the rental, finishing in the early 1970’s. It was used exclusively by family as a treasured summer getaway until recently.
We’ve added a few modern upgrades (high speed fiber optic cable!!) and finishing touches, but the cabin retains most of its original features including beautiful knotty pine walls, ceilings and floors.
The owners (Lisa & Phil) are usually available onsite at their cabin next door should you need extra towels, blankets or other items or if you have questions, need help or need to borrow something (tools, etc.). We’ve been known to help guests with runaway or sinking boat issues among other things.
Our doggo Ollie loves meeting new friends. He loves to swim and boat when he isn ’t begging for pets
