We were greeted by a welcoming gift bag filled with truly nice goodies and a warm greeting card. Even with the stifling heat of the summer in full force, we spent evenings on the beautiful porch playing board games that were provided and taking in the calm vista of the cove. The shiny outdoor grill was something we should have taken advantage of because there weren't a lot of good dining options nearby. We ventured to Palestine for a train ride and enjoyed driving on country roads that circled the lake. The car port is nicely done and provides cooling shade. The lakeside bedroom was particularly bright and roomy, and the bathrooms were modern and clean. The kitchen supplies were top notch! Beautiful plates and cups, and a nicely set table set the tone. Very comfortable couch and a big screen on the tv with lots of channel options were thoroughly enjoyed. Once the heat subsides, a little TLC for the grass and plants will boost the curb appeal. Thank you for a very pleasant visit!
