Perfection!
We loved our stay. The home was very on point. Beautiful decor & finishes. My kids loved the downstairs area - bunk beds, tv with comfy chairs & blankets, air hockey, & game machine. My husband and I enjoyed all the outdoor seating and the indoor fireplace at night.

Summer Vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect rental for kids and adults. Great location! No need to leave the mountain except for groceries. There was plenty to do for all the kids ranging from 10-17. Community pool, great trails to hike and lakes to fish at. Plenty of room for 4 adults and 6 kids. The cabin had everything needed to cook for 10 people. Fun game/movie room for the kids. Everyone in our party of ten had a great time! The property manager was readily available for any questions or concerns. We would stay her again.

Property Needs Updating
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a nice stay at Lakin it Easy. The cabin needs some updating and improvements. First is the front door locking mechanism. The door will not unlock after putting in the code. After 3 tries it resets and then the display will not activate. Even with new batteries it still would not work and we had to leave the back door unlocked when we went anywhere. Second the outdoor deck furniture is rusted and strewn around the deck. Not safe to sit on. The wooden chairs need painting and the seat cushions need replacing. One of the orange cushions is in the woods probably blown off the deck by the wind. Third the mini split heating/AC unit at the top of the stairs leaks water onto the floor. It cannot be used. Lastly a breaker tripped that controls the receptacles in the master bedroom. It would not reset and needs replacing. Lamps, TV and portable AC would not work due to the breaker.The property manager is receptive to these issues being fixed.
