The direction given were very accurate but the address marker is very Small and offset in front of small cabins that line the Drive to the property so some improvement in signage would be helpful when arrived the only code that was given in the check in message or any correspondence was the dead bolt code. There was a key box for the door key but it was not the same code or given the property management was great and got us in quickly After we got in we quickly found that there was no Heat and the heater did not work. Again the management crew got a hold of the owners and found us electric heaters to use until the Furnace could be repaired the next day. Obviously at no fault of the owners the furnace had just had an issue. But it was 57 degrees when we arrived and it took till the next morning to get to 70 degrees So they did discount it for our inconvenience. The stay overall was good it was a nice house right on the lake would be great for a summer vacation. But for our use as a place to stay when in town was disappointing. But I would suggest a stay there for a great summer vacation on the lake.
