nice view, plenty of space, but underwhelming

Overall, we enjoyed our long weekend with a total of 4 families (8 adults and 9 children). We all easily fit in the house, and the view was great. It's pretty far from the lake, and I'd want a shorter drive to the water if I were to visit the area again. I also think a little hospitality could go a long way with this rental company. I've never stayed in a rental house that didn't include garbage bags, hand soap, dish soap, extra pillows/blankets/towels, etc...The air conditioning was broken, so it was extremely hot, especially upstairs. We had a good time, and we appreciated the size of the house, but I wouldn't rent it again.

Nice, clean, everything was in good shape

We were very happy when we got to the property, it was very clean and organized and in good shape. It has a pretty view off the deck and from most of the house. We never had a need to contact any property manager for the stay so I can't review that process.

Getaway escape

The pics for this home are spot on, including the marvelous view at the back of the home. This home is quite isolated and not terribly close to lake activities, but it sure was beautiful and accommodated our large family very well. Top of the line accommodations and appliances. Aside from the bit of distance to lake activities (about 15 mins+ to most locations), there are roaming roosters who frequent the property. Though it was sort of a neat novelty at first, the crowing in the early morning hours right outside our doors and windows was a surprise! 🙂
