This cute place was just perfect! The Wifi was helpful for the few meetings I had to do and the house and community as a whole were very comforting. Mr. Alfred was wonderful in helping us settle in and explaining where everything was to get us started. A lovely way to spend some quiet time with family, thank you!

Great Place!

This was a great place for us to stay! We like to fish so being able to have the boat at the dock and having a place to park the trailor was a must. The place has been remodled and is incredibly clean. Alfred was a great host, can''t wait to come back again!

Taylor made stay for the angler or water lover

Beautiful property on high rock Lake that was meticulously maintained and accommodating. Alfred made our stay over the top by his attentiveness and attention to our needs of any kind! The house was plenty ice and well equipped, and there was plenty of parking as well as additional parking offered. I would stay there again anytime and likely will book another weekend soon.

Great dockside house!

Nice little house right on the lake! The kitchen and bathroom were beautifully redone. We only used the owner bedroom, but the bed in there was very comfortable. The dock was amazing! We had some friends staying at Alfred's other house just up the road, and it was a super convenient walk. Alfred was very nice and easy to get ahold of if we had questions, but in no way intrusive (the perfect host!). I would note that the AC is not central, so when the temps got really high in the afternoon, the living room humidity got pretty high (though we didn't bother to set the unit lower than 74 as we spent more time out on the water and didn't feel the need to waste the electricity). Overall, a great spot! If we decide to visit High Rock Lake again, we'll try to book with Alfred for sure.

Dangerous Health Situation - Not sure how this ever got approved for VRBO

I have used VRBO several times, and have always been satisfied with the description being accurate for what we expected. However, this place had some issues that were just blatantly ignored by the owner. When you walked in you could tell the floors had not been swept much less cleaned. The living room furniture was old and like sitting on the floor. The blinds and window sills were noticeably dust covered. There was dust under the beds so no one had cleaned under the beds in a while. I don't think the owner uses a cleaning service but a thorough cleaning is definitely needed. There is a definitely a dangerous situation in the bedroom with twin beds. When were looking for a broom, we looked in that closet and that's where we found a possible health hazard situation. That closet had the hot water heater in it with a five gallon bucket attached. That bucket had dirty water in it and you could smell the mildew. We were scared that the air conditioner "on the floor" was full of mold too. And, on the wall beside one of the twin beds were "literally" two outdoor covers that you might see on faucets in the winter - just hanging on some types of pipes. This whole room was scary so we just closed the door and used the other rooms. But, the closet in the second bedroom smelled so bad and had a ton of junk in it so that closet was not useable. The third bedroom did not have a closet at all. The outside was okay - it could have used a good pressure cleaning. But the view from the living room and outside deck was of a house next door that the roof had fallen in on (obviously some time back) so that was really a "nice view". Parking - Our yard area where we parked had an SUV and a boat already parked in it so we had to squeeze in our two vehicles. I would be very leery of renting this house. There are obviously issues that the owner needs to address. Someone with breathing problems - this would be a very dangerous place for them to stay. Unfortunately, we had to tough it out, but never again. If we had to stay more than two nights, I would have abandoned this place and spent even more money to get a hotel room. Please don't put yourself in this same situation. Kind of scared me for using VRBO again.

Sara, I am saddened to hear that your stay was less than 5 stars. The house was inspected before you arrive. I wished you had called me about your concerns, so I could have addressed them. I take the health and safety of my guests as a top priority! The house is disinfected and cleaned after the departure of every guests. The outside of the house is regularly cleaned. On the back of each bedroom and bathroom door, there are over the door hooks to hang clothing. Unfortunately, I have no control over how the property owner next to me keeps his property. I'm not sure why there was an SUV in the driveway, but typically it can easily accommodate for large pickup trucks, as we get fisherman who bring their boats. I wish you would have contacted me, as we talked by phone the day before you arrive. I believe I greeted you when you arrive, which I generally do. If I don't greet guests, then I call them to make sure everything is ok. My goal is always, for my guests to have a 5 star experience for anything that I have responsibility for. Your concerns are noted.
