Very comfortable!

There was plenty of room for the 10 of us and the house was very well laid out. The kids spent every day on the dock, riding the paddle boat and fishing boat. There is no air conditioning but once we opened all the windows it was very pleasant inside the house. Overall I would definitely come back!

Vieth family vacation rental

House was well maintained and equipped except for issues below. The accommodations were very nice.The kayak, paddleboat and board even though we brought some of our own were a plus. The owner Ross got back to us quickly with any questions we needed answered. Vrbo kept emailing me to suggest I book the rental before it is full when I had already booked it back on Sept.8 2021.The owner had difficulties trying to contact VRBO to straighten this out.It appeared it was no fault of his.He assured me that I had booked it for the week desired.A list of kitchen items available in the rental on their site would have been helpful. There was a couple of issues that were passed on to Ross the owner which I believe he will address, the downstairs shower the mixing valve needs to be replaced could not get cold water without the water shutting off in the tub shower.We could smell septic outside and the upstair toilet parts need to be replaced, couple of times the water pump ran almost continuously until you giggled the handle. I give it a rating of 3+ and a 5 when the issues are addressed.
