"My family and friends have stayed at
several different resorts in the past but once
we stayed with you at Shady Hollow we knew we
found the place we were going to return to year
after year. The lake is perfect for all the
water sports (sking, tubeing, knee boarding,
fishing, etc...) that my family enjoys so much.
We all enjoy the free use of your toys on the
beach and especially the blue floating raft that
the kids can swim out to and jump off. On our
walls proudly hangs the picture frames our kids
made during craft time our first year staying
with you. I can not express how incredibly
excited the kids were last year when we arrived
and the rock they all signed and set at your
store door steps was still there from two years
prior. Your hospitality and kid friendly
atmosphere makes your cozy quiet resort the
perfect family vacation spot.We all look forwad
to visiting you again in August!!!!!" |

"We absolutely love the small
resort and "rustic" feel! You guys are the
friendliest, yet not invasive hosts ever. It is
so refreshing to be on vacation and not feel you
have to have an eye on your child every second
to ensure their safety-the resort is so small,
homey and comfortable feeling that you can truly
relax. Thank you!!!"
"It is all you guys though, if it wasn't such a
perfect place to stay we wouldn't come back all
the time. It's amazing how perfect it is in
every way-the rustic cabins, the nice cabins,
the group supper, how small it is, all the free
toys/boats/etc., the kids activities, the free
fish food-I could go on and on-WE LOVE IT! Can't
wait to come back :)"

You have such a beautiful resort and are so good
at what you do! Let me know if it's still
available for that time frame. I'm also trying
to talk my sister into renting the other cabin
for the same week. I'll let you know. Thanks!" |

"We have gone to Shady
Hallow for 3 years in a row now for the 4th of
July weekend. We absolutely love it! We have 6
children and come up with our camper. This is a
very family-friendly place to stay with our
kids. The fishing and swimming are great and we
love the smaller atmosphere that this resort has
to offer. It's quiet in the mornings and it's
easy to sit down at the beach and watch the kids
swim without having 100 other people there at
the same time. It makes for a very relaxing
time. We will continue to make Shady Hollow our
4th of July retreat."

"We have so many good memories but the
one that stands out most is about 4 or 5 years
ago, Holly who is now 13 said to her mom on the
way home from our week at the lake, "When are we
going to the lake again? I just love to swim."
One other memory is that of Troy who is now 9
years old and continues to be the fish in the
family. When younger he set a goal for the next
year such as , "Next year I am taking lessons so
I can swim to the "blue thing" next time."
Maddie, who is now 8 years old, loves to build
things in the sand and loves to ride in the
paddle boats. Andrew, 7 years old, was very
proud of himself when he was able to jump off
the pontoon in the middle of the lake and swim
back to the ladder. He said that next year he
would do it twice. Noah was full of sand as he
drove the trucks all over the place. He also was
more of a face painter than a rock painter!
Stacey, Misti, Jeremy, Scott, Deaunn and Austen
also enjoy the lake. Last summer, Steve was in
the middle of a bettle with lung cancer. I have
a great picture in my mind of Austen and Steve
around our campfire roasting marshmallows to
make s'mores. It was one of the few smiles we
got out of Steve during those tough chemo days!
We have a lot of pictures of the kids fishing
off the dock with the dads and moms having just
as much fun as the kids. Eric loved to come when
he was younger. He still remembers his lake toy
that he lost one year and you saved for him when
it came up on shore. He thought that was amazing
that you would save it for him.
The greatest benefit we get from the lake is the
family relationships we are able to share every
year. As the kids grow and life events happen,
the week at the lake brings us all together for
a time of regrouping and reacquainting ourselves
with each other. I thank you for that
opportunity!
Good luck with the new website. I hope you are
not too buried in the snow!
See you next summer!" |
