This home is absolutely gorgeous. The stunning floor to ceiling windows let in natural light and a beautiful view of the lake. The only reason for 4 stars over 5 is that we found the beds to be too firm for our comfort.

This property is all it is advertised to be and is situated in the midst of all-aspects of village life.
The pictures on the site do a nice job of capturing the splendid views and open floor plan of the home. If anything, the windows open more than you might imagine to lessen the distance between inside and outside.
The arrangements and execution of two dinners and one breakfast prepared for us in the home were highlights of our four days there.
If you have not stayed in a small village before, know that the roosters and dogs will make their presence known at various times of the day or night. Likewise, we were not expecting village-wide music and a couple of town meetings to complete our authentic and immersive village experience. On reflection, this is real village living, not primarily a tourist setting.
