Less than stellar

I’ve waited awhile to leave this review and while the communication with the property manager was adequate and responsive -a few things occurred during this trip that left me with a less than positive experience especially for the price of this home. When we arrived, it was clear this home was beautifully constructed and has quality furniture but it was not properly cleaned. The house was also not supplied with common house supplies such as toilet paper, soap, garbage bags, dishwasher pods. The property manager was prompt and reimbursed us for the inconvenience but we still had to make a trip into town. We cleaned as best we could on our way out (there was no broom and majority hardwood floors) and followed all check out processes instructed. Following the stay, we were asked if we had brought a dog into the home, which we had not, but felt uncomfortable as it felt like accusation for something that was not allowed and that we had not done. I understand the property manager is likely trying to get to the bottom of what is likely the need for a change in cleaning vendors but the whole weekend just had an air of frustration as we found another thing that was missing or having to ration grocery bags to use as garbage bags because we didn’t realize those were missing til after our trip into town.

2nd family vacation

Our 1st family vacation was here last year. We loved it so much, we came back. Hopefully next year will be the 3rd annual. It’s a beautiful property with all the amenities.

Great family vacation home!

We loved our stay at this beautiful home! It suited our needs perfectly. There's plenty of seating on the outdoor deck. The views are very serene, and all rooms are clean and spacious. We will definitely try to book again in the future!

Family Celebration

The house is beautiful. We had a wonderful time. There was a couple of issues that the owner was quick to respond and correct. We all enjoyed the fire pit at night, laughing, talking making s’mores and hot dogs over the fire. It would be helpful if there was a railing on the front porch steps.

awesome house

We had picture perfect weather to enjoy our family reunion. The home was perfect for large group conversation with a beautiful open floor plan. We had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The lawn and dock were perfect to rent our pontoon boat. The views for both sunrise and sunset were amazing!
