The location of the house was very convenient for our planned activities and we had plenty of space to spread out in the house. It is right on a main road so there is some road noise from traffic. A white noise machine took care of that. The lake was a bit further from the house than we had expected but a short walk through the massive yard. The cove where the dock is, is very shallow and full of weeds so fishing was not really an option. They have a nice screened-in patio behind the house with a charcoal grill to cook on. The beds were comfortable. Our main issue was the house needs a deep cleaning. It's a nice place with plenty of room for a large group but could use more than a sweep and wipe down. Hosts responded quickly when contacted.

We appreciate the comments. The guest stay incurred during a draught period. The water in the lake was low causing the fishing limitation. We spray all Summer for lake vegitation. There is a fishing dock at Chester Frost Park that is free for times of low water. This guest checked in on the same day a guest checked out. The house was cleaned but the stove was not cleaned deeply and there were some cobwebs in a closet.

This was our second stay in this property in a few months. We like that it’s super convenient to the boat ramp at Chester Frost, however, the house could use a really good deep cleaning. I was hoping that last time it was just a one-off miss, but I feel like the housekeeping is lacking. It’s not terrible by any means, or else we wouldn’t have stayed twice, but it just really needs some good elbow grease. Plenty of space for our guest count! Great parking!

Really fun place to stay with kids. Dock is private and peaceful and we caught several fish at various points in our stay. Kids enjoyed the bunkbeds and it was nice to have a separate bathroom for the kids with a bathtub. The host was extremely courteous and very accommodating to us. Thanks!

The home was comfortable. I wish the photos on Vrbo would have been more current, my expectations would have been different. The photo provided of the water wasn't correct as the lake must have been lowered for this time of the year. We were ready to be by the water.

Thank you for the kind comments. The water was up early this year. Also, Chester Frost Park has announced that they are installing a water park at the beach. The pictures look incredible. I can't believe they can provide a water park that is free!

The home was perfect for our needs & for the size of our travel party. We were in town for a fishing tournament and had plenty of parking for the 2 boats we had with us. We were within a 5 minute drive from the tournament ramp which was a huge plus. The only negative to mention is the cleanliness. The home could really use a thorough deep cleaning. All in all, we would stay here again for a tournament in the area.

Great Stay

Wanted to be on the lake and that’s what we got. Brought our boat and kept it on the Dock. There is no power on the dock so keep that in mind. Other than the bad fishing weather had a great stay!!!

This is a rental, but still the home needs some deep cleaning. Some of the linens need to be replaced. More blankets are needed. Fortunately, we had traveled with a few extra. It was modestly priced. The area around the lake is private and pretty. The lake water level is extremely low right now so you can’t actually access the lake from the dock.

Response from VrboOwner on 16 Jan 2026
We appreciate feedback. Replacing the linens occurs periodically and we will take this feedback as a point to replace any worn linens. Each bedroom has an extra blanket in each closet. January and February are our slowest months and we perform our deep cleaning during that period. The prior guest spent Christmas at the home and left a large mess to clean up. We only had 5 hours to turn the house around. We have an outstanding housekeeper, but sometimes situations factor in to the amount of cleaning possible when we have a guest checking out and another checking in on the same day (Christmas and New Year Season. We have been busy this year, and the retreat being lakefront does not have the excitement of Spring through Fall. However for the number of beds and location, and the discounted price, it is an outstanding value even when the lake level is down. I think it would be fair to say that the guest paid about the same for a 4 bedroom home with 9 beds that they would have paid for one nice hotel room. We have Vacation Rental this house for 12 years.

We had a great time and would stay here again! We loved the property. The fishing was excellent and had lots of room for our two dogs to walk. It was an easy 20-30 minute drive to all the attractions we wanted to go to. Our only complaint was it could have been cleaner but overall we were happy with our stay.
