Wonderful stay! Hot tub and deck areas were great for our girls trip. Kitchen was well stocked. House was clean. The cove was quite busy due to the marina nearby, but we were still able to swim with no issues. Overall we loved our stay!

Fantastic property in a great location that was exactly as advertised. The home had plenty of space for our group with a gorgeous multi-tiered deck and friendly neighbors. The house rules and checkout procedures were incredibly reasonable. Perfect stay, no notes.

the whole house was great- the kitchen the hot tub but our favorite place was the covered deck right off the kitchen. I think we spent our whole time there, looking out at the lake and enjoying the view. It was exactly what we needed and even made friends with a few kittens that decided to visit us. Andrew was a great host and communicated in real time and was able to answer all our questions. Highly recommend

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Pros: Location was great. Close to the marina, bars and grocery store. The covered patio was perfect for our group of 6. We spent a lot of time there, including one day when it was raining. The dock was nice and roomy. Jumping platform and stairs into the water were great. Andrew was great to work with and very responsive. Cons: The bedrooms were a little smaller than expected. The dresser drawers in the master room were difficult to open. The trip up and down to the lake involves a lot of steps. The very last step that leads to the dock felt a little dangerous as it was a further step down to the dock than the rest. Use caution.

Hi Danielle! We appreciate the time you took to leave us feedback. I agree, it is a lot of steps to the water! We try to have enough pictures to identify that in our listing. If you ever return to the lake, please let me know and we would love to set you up at one of our other properties with less stairs down to the dock. Andrew

Overall very clean. Furniture in living room especially is a bit dated. Kitchen is nice but appliances are low end or mid grade. Bedrooms are small but comfortable. Bathrooms are small and shower and bathroom fixtures are older.Location is great and all decks provide great views. Owner was very responsive to an issue with the hot tub.Would suggest having bath soap available.
