Review Score:   4
Summary: The breeze from the lake was wonderful. We enjoyed family time on the lake but be careful if you have small children, 2 of our 5 got bad cases of swimmer’s itch. If you know ahead of time you can take precautions to avoid the problem. Home is dated and could use some updates.
