This is a great house for a large group. There were plenty of places to sleep. Great outdoor space. We did have a few minor issues that the host handled right away. Very cozy gathering places. Lots of blankets. We were there in Oct. I’m sure it would be amazing in the summer.

Overall nice property with easy access to the lake and beautiful views. But we ran into many problems. Some of the problems the host did attempt to address, but that then led to multiple workers at the house for hours during our stay. One problem was not fully addressed, and one was somewhat out of the host's control. Host was available quickly to discuss any problems, but it did impact our stay due to the inconveniences we were faced with. If the problems were to be addressed, then this would be a wonderful place to stay.

Quiet and Relaxing

We had an awesome stay at this property. Even got the opportunity to do some fishing right off the dock with the pole provided On property. Caught two bluegill and missed out a big crappie! All bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and tidy. Would highly recommend this property and will definitely stay here again next time I'm in the area!

Not off season house

Smaller than anticipated. Master is in the basement, if you’re 6 foot or over you will be very uncomfortable down there. Price was pretty steep for offseason. Older house with low insulation you can hear every step, cough or sneeze from all 3 stories. One of the showers wasn’t attached to wall. House was clean but for 1500 plus for a weekend away in offseason we definitely expected more.

Great place for our get together

We all met up and stayed here (about 12 of us) and it was perfect! We spent lots of time on the dock, and on the back patio area, we were able to dock our boat which was a huge bonus. We loved living lakeside for the weekend. The property manager was very easy to reach, and very responsive with questions. overall great location and great house
