The house was clean and looked like the pictures. There were 3 of us and we didn’t spend much time inside the house, but we all slept comfortably. It took us a little bit to get used to the kitchen being downstairs

Nice little home.
We stayed there for a Hunting Trip. Myself and 3 other guys. Property was clean. Property was exactly as described. Plenty of parking space. BBQ grill can probably be replaced. Nearing end of life. Fridge in Kitchen could use some maintenance, works great, just leaking water from bottom gasket. All other appliances in working order, air conditioning/heater works great. No complaints. Cleaning lady even stopped by to ask if we needed anything. Will definitely stay again whenever in the area.

Great Place with a Couple Mishaps
The place is in a great location with a dock. The house was clean and roomy. One of the bed frames was broken and they never came with a replacement. The wifi was also not working the entire time we were there (although they did at least try to come and fix it). Manager was friendly and prompt with responses.

Great house, great location
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was awesome, spacious and fit all of us very well. We also loved the kayaks that came with the house. Will definitely come back again. A few minor comments for things that could be improved: two of the beds could be replaced, the bathroom needs a lock, would be nice to have shampoo and soap.

Lake stay
House worked out great for us. Could have used a few more towels, but not a big deal. Nice to have a dock in the back yard - kids enjoyed fishing off of it. Only complaint was the water was shallow and lots of seaweed so couldn’t really swim by the dock.

The property manager & housekeeping staff were very good to work with. House was clean. The house had multiple safety issues. 2nd floor deck was rotted & unsafe. Lower bedroom light didn’t work- flickered like a strobe light. Lower floor bathroom had extremely unsafe high walled tub with nothing to hold onto while step in & no nonskid strips on bottom of tub. Hinge broken on kitchen cabinet.

Nice spot - beautiful area
We were only there Fri-Sunday. We had no intention of cooking, but the kitchen was fine. We all thought it would have been better to design the home with the Kitchen and living area on the main floor, but we didn't cook. The beds and baths were nice. Little things to improve would be: the upper bath shower didn't drain well; the lower bath shower fixtures were very loose, but functional. Both tubs could use a non-skid mat to reduce the risk of falls in the tub. The lower bedroom needs more lighting or brighter lights. There was no wine opener in the kitchen. And the fridge ice maker seems to be leaking on the floor. Still a nice place and would enjoy staying in it again. And in warmer weather so we could enjoy the lake more!

We enjoyed the house, it met our needs. Owner was easily reached and answered all our questions. A few suggestions: couple chairs on patio needed repair or replacement, bathroom soaps were watered down so hard to keep in hand, bathroom tub was slippery so needs non-slip strips.
