We were never sent the code to get in, we had to get with the host. The host doesn’t accept calls, text only. Address led us 11 miles from the site and when asked the host for better address, she never responded. We had to locate it from Google. Host did however respond quickly to request for the code and to use boat launch. House was 48 degrees. Unit in main section would not keep up. The area was quite and peaceful, but I would not recommend it.

Our apologies for the issues you faced and for your discomfort. We do appreciate you mentioning that it was a quiet and peaceful area. We have made some changes in staff, and the host/guest relations person you dealt with is no longer with us. We regret that you had this problem, but it will not be an issue for you or any of our future guests. The cabin is not consistently booked during the cold weather, so it is possible that housekeeping did not turn the temperature up between guests. We do hope that it warmed up once you adjusted the thermostat.

The Little Red House

We’ve anticipated a fantastic stay here and it did not disappoint! The house was perfect for our family of 4. The neighboring boat ramp was a cherry on top. The children loved the beach area. The only downfall was the narrowness of the bathroom. Overall, wonderful stay!

Quiet lake getaway

Smaller 2b/1bth lake cabin tastefully updated and very accommodating for a lake getaway. Really enjoyed our time and the peaceful lake even with a rainy forecast it cleared long enough to fish, swim, cookout and just enjoy the lake views.

Nice little house. Very nice for the price range. House was very clean and well appointed. Having the dock and landing right there was very nice. House is convenient to Kawliga, and the food there was awesome. The only problem we had was the A/C in the living room. It was turned on but not cooling the room at all. Cleaned the filter and all was good from there. I would definitely stay here again.

This is a beautiful cabin at an idyllic spot on Lake Martin. I couldn't believe it had its own sandy beach! It is cozy and comfortable inside with a well appointed kitchen. Tall or great people beware! The bathroom is tiny and your knees may bump into the tub when you use the toilet. I am 5'8" and was grateful for the handbar mounted nearby to get the leverage I needed to stand up. Beds were comfy. One room had nice storage but the twin one had none. Parking is generous and convenient to a ramp to the front door. Plenty of deck and beach furniture to enjoy the view, which is magnificent. I was disappointed in the nonrefundable damage fee which was NOT included in the "total cost" quoted before booking. It upped the per night price quite a bit, and I have always had the option of purchasing insurance (which was cheaper than the fee) or paying a deposit which was later refunded if no damage occurred during my stay. I would have chosen a different place if I had known the actual cost before booking. The management team was always polite and responsive, although I had to request the address and arrival information before we left home. The local contact luckily answered the phone when we arrived because the entrance code was not included, but that was the last time we heard from them despite several texts and calls about a few minor problems. I am glad we didn't need on site assistance during the week we were there. I won't rent from this company again.
