Our first time at SML
Review Submitted: August 13, 2009

We totally enjoyed our stay at this home. The property was clean, and well maintained. The owner had a stream lined procedure for making a reservation and what we needed to know about the process was clear.
The house was better than we expected. From the picture we could tell it was an older home so we thought it would be somewhat 'campy' but since it was well cleaned and maintained it felt more like a year round home. The neighborhood was quiet, suitable for walking or running, and getting different views of the lake. From one street nearby you can see the damn. The weather was perfect every day for eating outside at the table on the screened in porch. The fan kept us from being too hot in the afternoon.
We spent lazy days on the dock fishing, swimming and reading. Our boys had hours of fun using the canoe and little sailboat when there was a breeze. The water was perfect swimming temperature (this is in August) and in the evening we watched the moon rise over the lake from the porch or dock.
One night we had dinner down the street at the marina, the desserts are the most tasty.
We also visited the winery and got a free personal tour and tasting. We walked through the vineyard and my husband wanted to eat the grapes but didn't. When we returned from the fields the owner said, "sure, you need to try the grapes, they are incredably sweet." Oh well, next time.
