Great overall stay

We had a good stay - 5 adults, 1 child, 1 infant - for Thanksgiving. Kitchen was stocked well for a lot of cooking. Views of the lake were great. Given the weather - cold, some rain - the use of the community center pool was a welcomed perk.

Fall Get Away

Perfect setting for our extended family of 6. The listing might want to list that the dock is a long flight of stairs down from the house. I wouldn't want to bring a canoe and have to navigate that climb.

Disappointed

120 steps to the boat docks was very misleading. The outside porches, chairs and stairs were filthy, dirty bird droppings old leaves from six months ago everywhere. Half the windows didn’t work all three sliding screen doors, the screens were broken and three out of the four air-conditioning units froze up and did not work properly. The boat docks were broken and crooked. The weeds and all the flowerbeds were 3 feet tall
