Weekend Getaway
The house was perfect for our family weekend getaway. There were plenty of toys and games to keep the kids and adults entertained. Everything was clean and spotless and we loved that we could see the lake but it was far enough away we didn’t have to worry about the children trying to go without letting adults know. Everyone loved the kayaks too. Great bonus!

Wonderful Vacation Spot
My family and I had an amazing stay at The Cove Retreat. The location was ideal and it was incredible to be just a few steps away from a calm beach and the lake. The house was well kept, clean, and as described. We absolutely would stay at this location again and will have fond memories of this trip.
