Great place!
We really enjoyed our stay here. It is newly renovated, and we really liked how they have the condo set up. It was very clean and accurately described in the listing.
It is located on the lake. It is a nice view from the back deck overlooking the lake. It only takes a couple minutes to walk to the beach with no roads to cross.
Communication with the host was accurate, timely, and pleasant.
We will absolutely stay here again!

Perfect Family Getaway
This townhouse was amazing! It had plenty of room for the entire family of 7. We love that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Our 15 year old loved the smaller nook bedroom upstairs so that he had his own space. The host communicated very well throughout our stay and was very helpful. We would definitely rent this townhouse again if it is available for our next stay!

Girl's Trip!!!
I honestly did not want to leave this review because it is a new listing. Location was close to everything, and we did not have a hard time finding the place. You could tell that it had just recently had some renovations because the inspector left their card on the table. Apparently, the place had been inspected the day that we arrived. There was painters' tape on one of the steps holding it together. I received this notice after I had arrived in the property. I had persons with disabilities with me and thankfully this did not become a hazard as some have difficulty with walking independently. The dishes in the home were very dated and some had stains. There was no toilet paper in the unit, and we had to purchase some. There also was not enough towels and we made a store run to purchase those as well. 2 of the towels had stains on them. The pull-out couch was dirty! It had old food crumbs and pee stains on it. It was not usable at all which had us questioning if the couch could even be sat on. There also wasn't any extra linen to use this bed any way. The bed in the master was terrible. It was hard, sunk in, and made a lot of noise. The pillow sham had stains on it so it wasn't used. The showers had a little bit of grime in them as well but nothing that we couldn't clean ourselves. With some minor improvements this place would be a great stay.
