We definitely hope to come back and stay longer next time. It was so cozy and clean and much bigger than we were expecting. And it couldn't have had a more beautiful view and convenient location.

We enjoyed our stay, the outside area was very pleasant. The place was clean and the host was very responsive. The only minor thing was that the back bedrooms got a bit hot with the only airconditioner being in the main area.

Labor Day 2024

We loved our stay. The home was clean and well maintained. The outdoor deck was very spacious and the view was amazing. We enjoyed using the bikes and kayaks that came with the stay. The neighborhood is really nice. Parking was ample, enough for a boat trailer and 5 Cars. There is patking in front of the house and in the upper parking area. We were pleased with the owners response time. We will definitely stay here again.

Not great for dogs

Although the other reviews said this place was great for dogs, there is no yard and stair to get to both the house and the bunkhouse. We arrived after dark and could not find the place easily. Directions to park off 54 were provided once we were in the house, but I am glad we didn’t try that because the steps were very steep. Yes, the toilet is way to close to the wall but I could handle that. My issue was that there was no water pressure at all. The shower put out a light drizzle and it took forever to wash dishes because the water wouldn’t fill the sink. That being said, the furniture was comfortable and the house was clean. I wouldn’t stay here again but mostly because of the dogs.
