We travel to lake Martin serval times a year for quick as well as long getaways, and I can safely say we enjoyed staying here. The house is very charming and comfortable. The deck is great place to have a cup of coffee in the morning or an adult beverage in the evening. When sitting on the deck you take about 14 stairs down to a landing and then walk down a small, curved incline to get to the dock. We were able to see deer each evening and during the day we got to see turtles, a snake, chipmunks, a duck, a crane as well as a hawk and of course lots of minnows. The dock is a great place to fish / swim or to just enjoy the chairs that are provided along with a drink. For your coffee, they have a traditional coffee maker so be sure to bring coffee and filters, or your own Keurig. Also, there is a laundry room outside of the main dwelling that is easily missed. Lastly, a grocery store is nearby to get anything you may need. Niffers is also right down the road for a great burger, and if you're looking for something a little fancier just go into the Stillwaters community.
