Family Oasis - Wonderful Escape
A lovely house on the lake…great for families - ample room for 6. Ideally located, well/thoughtfully stocked and welcoming.
We cooked most of our meals and ate and played together - great memories were made. Other than a dishwasher there was really nothing we didn’t have. Plenty of family games, great television with all the services we wanted.
Just a few things to consider:
If you’re looking for any sort of privacy, this is not a place for you. Any noise from the ground floor echoes thru the two sleeping lofts. Both spaces were terrific for our kids, giving them their own space - the bigger one even has a tv; but, the teenagers complained about the noise.
Also note, the smaller loft in the back has very steep stairs, a challenge for most of us to get up and down, but fine for youthful legs - which kept the rest of us out of the space…not safe for little ones or anyone with any level of compromised mobility (or vertigo). Other steps and step downs (from the driveway and in the house) were manageable.
Things which would make it better:
- Access to the water toys (kayaks, etc.) - were visible but locked up and unusable - making for pouty teenagers.
- A clear path to the water. The “private beach” was overgrown and hard to maneuver.
- Dish washer (would be a huge improvement and keep us coming back)
Overall - terrific.
