Summary: Great family getaway of all ages in our group - from grampa with a cane for walking to a 3 year old — many delicious meals prepared and sat at a table for 10-12 .. jet skiing every day and a pontoon boats Easy to stop and have a sandwich and keep going The only thing if it’s warm bring fans - they aren’t supplied and no AC gets hot - but that’s why you have the lake to jump into
