The location was perfect, and the house and lake were wonderful. Great hiking nearby and we enjoyed time on the water. A great house for two families to stay.

Thank you Amy! We are so glad you enjoyed the house
Beautiful home and very well stocked. We enjoyed the paddleboards, renting a boat, and really enjoyed the High Falls hike that's close by. Thank you for a great vacation!

Thanks so Much Tim! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay ^-^
Everything was great. It was an arduous trek to the lake. My parents were supposed to come, but cancelled last minute. Thank goodness because they would not have been able to walk up and back from the lake. But we had a great time.

Hi Jodi, thank you for the positive review and honest feedback. We do try to convey in the pictures the full extent of the walk from the home to the dock, but it can be tricky to capture, so we appreciate when guests share their experience and provide further perspective! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay either way.
Overall, the property was beautiful and well-maintained. House was clean and perfect for our girl’s trip. Great kitchen and lots of space. We did run out of things such as dish soap, laundry pads, and toilet paper midway through. It would’ve been great to see a bigger supply of that particularly since 8 guests were staying. Also, the hill from the dock to the house is EXTREMELY steep, and I wish that that was noted more explicitly in the description. One of our friends who had a bad knee was unable to go up and down the walkway and unfortunately did not get to access the dock.

Thank you Meagan for your detailed review. We appreciate the feedback and are glad to hear that you enjoyed the property overall. We do have the path from the dock to the house photographed extensively in the listing, but we will make sure to update the property description to better highlight the steep incline that may pose an accessibility challenge. Additionally, we will highlight the section that explains the "starter" supplies that we provide as a company for each house, to ensure guests are aware of what they are expected to bring or purchase for themselves. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, and we hope to host you again if you decide to visit in the future!
