Wonderful

One item that was important was hot water. With six adults getting ready for a wedding, we never ran out. The house is clean and comfortable with a beautiful view of the lake.
Location close to events scheduled for visit. Property very clean with easy in and out of driveway.

Nicole, thank you for choosing to stay at our lake house. It was a pleasure hosting you, and you are welcome back anytime in the future!
Main level of home has lots of space to gather and talk. All bedrooms and full bathrooms are upstairs. Sofabed available on main level along with half bath. Everything was as expected. Thank you.
Just as listed this home was beautiful with the view across the water watching fireworks over the water will stay again thank you for opening your home over the holidays
Our family enjoyed the experience we had at this location. The property is close to convenient stores, groceries stores, gas stations, and not far from the Casinos. We enjoyed the backyard deck for relaxation, grilling amd enjoying our morning coffee. We also enjoyed fishing at the nearby Dam. This place was perfect for us to visit because my mom grew up in Benton. It was just like being back home.
We had a great stay. Owner was great with communication and although we had some minor issues she was very helpful. House was furnished with the minimums.
Would recommend to the next group staying with multiple people to bring plastic cups and paper plates for more than a few people.
We had family coming down from the St. Louis area for a wedding and we needed to be near the Saint Tierre wedding venue. We found a great home that would accommodate a family of 5 as well as the grandparents and the groom the night before the big event. The house is charming with a large kitchen, formal dining room, and enough room for everyone to have their own space. The back yard overlooks the beautiful Cypress Lake and there is a large deck with a fire pit. There are 4 bedrooms, all upstairs, which gives you a lot more room downstairs. Everything was very awesome.
The only issues our group had was that the dock in the picture was not for us. We misunderstood Also, the toilets don’t flush very well. Overall, everything else was perfect and smooth, The host responded fast.

Thank you for staying with us and your honest review. The listing does state that “Launching your boat will be a breeze since the home is just down the street from the public ramp.”, but we are sorry if this caught you off guard as we do not have our own dock. We encourage guests to thoroughly review the listing before booking, to ensure they find the perfect vacation home for their needs.I am sorry about Toilet flashing problem. I wish if you would have told me I could have sent someone to fix it. I am glad you like everything else and enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!"

Great location for families coming from three states to unite together. Beautiful homes next door to each other. Both homes have very nice patio to relax and enjoy the view of the lake. Good for fishing if you love to fish. Also we were there for the 4th of July and we enjoyed watching fireworks on cypress lake. Everyone really enjoyed the three day outing and we will be back. Kosha responds quickly to any text messages. Thank you Kosha for your great hospitality.
The house and property were perfect for our purposes. My father in law passed away and we needed a place to relax after having to make all the necessary arrangements for him. The back patio allowed us to do that and the perfect scenery from the lake was just an add on to that.
We were concerned about having to adjust the thermostat in the evening and in the middle of the night. The owner had the temp set at 67 degrees for the overnight and we would be freezing having to get up in the middle of the night and adjust to a 72 degrees.
Otherwise we enjoy our stay

Thank you so much. I am so sorry I wished you would have called me or texted me. I did not know and we just got updated new thermostat and it had auto adjusted but after I saw your review I changed it so guest can adjust it themselves.
I am so glad you had a good time. Please plan to come back. We would love to have you again.

The house was very conveniently located with beautiful lake views. Even though it’s located close to a busy street, the road noise was minimal if any. Parking is limited. Not having a pier or being able to tie a boat up at the house was a little inconvenient but we knew that was the case going in. Our family had plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes and even basic spices. The advertised second refrigerator in the garage was not functional (not even after we plugged it in) but the one in the kitchen was a decent size. We just put drinks in a cooler. There was lots of clutter in the garage (non functioning appliances, etc). The beds were clean and comfortable. You’ll need to bring your own paper towels and dish and laundry soap. No toiletries like shampoo or body wash are included. Not a problem but different hosts do or don’t provide these things and I wish that was included in the listings. The WiFi is spotty which made watching our favorite football games difficult since the television is internet based but I don’t know if high speed internet is available at the lake. The hostess was very responsive.

Dear Mr. Weaver,
We are glad you chose our home and we apologize for any inconvenience you experienced during your stay.
The listing does state that “Launching your boat will be a breeze since the home is just down the street from the public ramp. You can launch boats at the public boat launch.”Also, listing states no parking in a garage. I wish you would have asked me about toilet paper, dish soap and laundry detergent because we keep extra in laundry room cabinet for guests connivance. Our advertisement says double door refrigerator not 2 refrigerators.
we are sorry if this caught you off guard as we do not have our own dock. We encourage guests to thoroughly review the listing before booking, to ensure they find the perfect vacation home for their needs. We do all we can to make our homes the best possible stays, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests. Thank you for your feedback.
Thank you,
Kosha

Thanksgiving week
This property is oversold online. You can’t fish from the backyard. Main reason we rented because 8 yr old grandson loves to fish. You couldn’t see out the back patio glass doors because they were so crusted with bugs! The plumbing in the house was not good! Upstairs bath leaked into downstairs bath & dining room. There was water stains on the ceilings. Lots of lightbulbs weren’t working. There was 1/2 rolls of toilet paper and paper towel. No soap (dish, dishwasher, bath, hand). The street was super busy and the house isn’t really in a neighborhood. By giving this property a 3 star rating, I’m being generous. This is the 1st time I’ve been unhappy with VRBO in the 14 years I’ve been using VRBO. The owner/property management needs to do some repairs to the house & update the listing.
I am quite disappointed that I agreed to paid so much for this location. This property feels like an early 1980s college rental complete with obvious drywall patches, mismatched paints, shoddy millwork, stained ceilings, etc. Our daughter found a dead wasp in her bed sheets, making us wonder if they were even cleaned from the last guests. The yard and decks were a mess. There were piles of leaves across all outdoor living spaces, a broken basketball goal (literally a huge hole in the backboard and pole bent over the driveway), and even a broken (as in, severed in half) light post in the front lawn. We couldn’t even locate the property from the road at night. There were two only two trash bags and no dishwasher detergent. There was no dish soap or sponges/scouring pads, either. I'm not sure how we were expected to wash dishes, pots, or pans.
The floors squeaked throughout the house. The baseboards and floors were worn and dirty. I’m really puzzled as to how one would price this at $295/night.
For those curious, we rent in this area regularly. In fact, in the past two months, we rented at two locations similar to this within a few miles of this property. They were far better in presentation for 60% of the price. We are low maintenance guests, and negative reviews aren't the norm for us. However, this property was so far below standard, we don’t want anyone else to make this same mistake.
Please rent elsewhere.
The property was definitely as advertised. WE enjoyed ourselves with family. One piece of advise that I'd add is that the towels need to be upgraded and additional bedding is needed. I bought towels for the kitchen and left them there for the property. Overall outstanding stay!
The property was not clean for having a cleaning fee. Also am concerned about the back deck. Several of us missed the step down on the two level deck. A different color on the upper level or a rail would help differentiate the two levels. If some end for jet mop would have been available, we would have mopped the kitchen floor before leaving.

No attention
Host had my check-in date wrong. Never sent me check-in detail and did not include it in the confirmation as typical. Didn't answer my attempts to contact for access to the property. VRBO finally made contact for me. Actually entered the home 3 hours after I was suppose to check-in. Doors and walls were soiled. internet password was incorrect. Trash can was overflowing and smelled. Very limited towels, etc. A nice home in a lovely location. Just poorly managed. Needs cleaning and attention to details.
