Guy’s weekend

Perfect for a guy’s weekend. My husband and his friends loved the dock for fishing. Communication with the owners was pleasant and timely. I was told that it brought back great memories of weekends at the cabin when they were younger. They are looking forward to yearly trips in the future.

Rocky start

Perhaps we were just unlucky with timing, but our stay didn't meet expectations. The first-floor air conditioning units (which were not shown in pictures) couldn't keep us comfortable the first few nights; there were some power outages while we were sleeping and out of the house that seem to be related. And we were surprised by construction the first few days on the 3-mile dirt road in to the lake, which made it especially cumbersome to go anywhere. The twin bunk bed in the basement wasn't very sturdy, and squeaked loudly any time the kid sleeping there moved, disrupting the other kid's sleep. The thin mattress made the futon there a poor alternative. Equally disappointing was the hosts' insistence that our concerns weren't valid because they had many good reviews on the other major booking platform (which we hadn't seen). We had relied on their description, which we didn't believe to be fully accurate. On the plus side, the lake was beautiful, the house was cute -- with a new kitchen and bathrooms, and the hosts had provided a lot of amenities to help keep us entertained.
