We enjoyed everything about our stay! The location on the lake was perfect for our young kids. There was very little boat traffic while we were there which made it so easy for the kids to get out into the water and play. The house was so well stocked, basically anything we could think of was included. As a group of 11 the house had plenty of space and things to do to satisfy all of us!

We found this to be a better value than other places we’ve stayed in the lake with a large group. It was more charming and much more accommodating with five star amenities.

We loved our stay at the Bluebird Sanctuary! The home was very clean and the decor was perfect for our family, with encouraging scriptures in every room! The home is situated on on a beautiful lot on a dead end street, so very private! The owner added several touches that made us feel so welcome -- she provided firewood, S'mores supplies, coffee/pods and hot drink mixes, and there were plenty of life jackets of all sizes for using with the 7 kayaks & 2 paddleboards. Even a paddleboat, which was unexpected. Plenty of beach towels too. The kitchens (2 of them) were well-stocked with dishware, flatware, and small appliances - a crockpot, Ninja blender, large stock pots and other pots/pans, a duel coffee maker/Keurig, and everything you need for grilling. The game room had a ping pong table, air hockey, table shuffleboard, bumper pool, Pac-man game, and tons of board games to enjoy! We had 1 plumbing issue, but the management company responded immediately to resolve it! We will be back!
