The little house is cozy and comfy and cute. It looks like a Little Red Caboose. The big house a few steps away is spacious, open, and uncluttered. The expansive lawn on the cove's shoreline has a hammock, fish cleaning station, fire pit, and plenty of open space for viewing the water from the deck. The open pier beckoned my adult daughter upon her arrival. It's an oasis of peace. Family members gathered in mornings for coffee and conversation on the long back deck. 8 of us were staying in these two houses plus Sunflower Hideaway, two doors away. On the deck we listened to birds (identified by sound through the Merlin app.). Within 20 minutes we heard about 15 species and saw a Great Blue Heron glide just above the water. The massive sectional sofa in the living area easily sat 8 for watching football on the large smart tv. One college student opted to sleep on comfy reclining section of the sectional. And, 8 sat comfortably at the large dining table for an anniversary celebration meal. Three grills sat outside. When rain kept us from using them for got hot dogs, the kitchen's air fryer came to the rescue. Closet space was everywhere. It'd be easy to hang enough clothes for a week (or a month.) Michele was promptly available by text when we had questions. As we checked out, we made a reservation for another family gathering.

They were hit by a tornado. last year that did quite a bit of damage. i was in the area for work and my dad asked me to go by and take a look so we could book a spot for our campers for a couple of week. I was so disappointed. I called my dad and sent some pictures. he couldn't believe it. little work had been done to restore the park. They did rebuild the fish cleaning house. they had a new fishing pier being built. nothing like before. we would take our party barge and take mom and dad out for boat rides and fishing. the new pier doesn't have boat slips like the old one so they aren't able to get on and off the boat and unloading it every time is a headache. The old pier they would take their lawn chairs and cooler sit on the pier and fish and visit with the locals and other fishermen. there is no way that can happen now. the pier has a fence around it that is to tall to sit in a chair and fish. I drove around the park looking for a good spot for the rv and there were very few as not all the waterfront lots have been releveled.. our new rv has 3 slide outs and most of the spaces are to small. the park up keep has declined. trash bin areas are falling apart and only saw about 2 picnic tables that look sturdy enough to hold all 4 of us. the roads in the park need graded and new gravel. I went in the store to get a burger before I headed back. i asked about the rebuilding. i was told they didn't have any insurance on the park and no money to get thing all done. i was told by a gentleman in the store that people donated quite a bit of money to help them out. that some fisherman donated counters for the fish house. i follow them on face book and saw where they had been in business for over years and was looking forward to 50+ more. i personally don't see that happening if they don't invest back into the park. If i had donated money to help rebuild the park back to what people loved and appreciated enough to donate to it i would highly disappointed. it is a shame we won't be spending our 2 weeks there this year. this is so sad to see....
