We have kayaks and a canoe to explore the wildlife on the water. Snowshoes to explore in the winter. Make smores at the fire pit and relax in the hammock.

Meet the Host
Kevin and I have been blessed to spend family time at our relatives lake homes since our children were born. We wanted to be able to share that with our family and friends. Our goal was also to open that experience up to the community. We wanted to create a space to slow down and enjoy the outdoors.
