Lovely setting. Spacious. A bit dated, with a hodge podge of items, without that fresh vacation vibe. Generally clean but questionable with crumbs under sofa pillows upstairs. Dust bunny’s near beds. Bath rug needed replaced. Overall it was clean, with a nice walk to to the lake & short drive to town.

We had a great stay overall. The place was very cute, clean, and comfortable, and it worked perfectly for our quick family trip. The lake setting was beautiful and relaxing.The only minor issues we experienced were low water pressure and that the hot water wasn’t working the morning we left, so everyone ended up taking cold showers before the long drive home. Since the property is on the lake, the water pressure may just come with the location.Other than that, we really enjoyed the property and appreciated how clean and welcoming everything was.

In town due to a death in the family. This house was perfect for two couples and our dogs.

Very happy with our stay.

Clean yet had water pressure is at around 18lbs of pressure. It barely had enough pressure to hold the bath spigot shower valve to divert water to the shower head. The hidden path to the lake brought us to a slippery staircase to the lakes edge. The floating floor to the master bedroom buckles because it was poorly installed. The 8 garbage pails of rotting garbage was disgustingly gross smelling. With the expectations of the guest responsibilities this place was overpriced and subpar for this VRBO rental.

Comfortable, beautiful, easy! Comfortable bed, very clean. Easy to find. Most of the pans in the kitchen are scratched Teflon, which is dangerous (PFAS), so I hope they replace them with something nontoxic. Overall though, great, would stay again!
