Cozy Little Hideaway

The Lake House at Dodge Point is my idea of perfection. Off the main road, quiet and serene morning coffee on the back patio with plenty of room for the whole family. Host was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!

It appears no one had rented the property for a while. The property was very dirty. Had bugs everywhere. Was told by the host that it had just been cleaned, but didn’t appear so.

Not a vacation rental

Way closer to a frat house than vacation rental. Old dirty furniture. Everything dirty. Fleas! Smelly well water was pretty bad. White towels were yellow.We got a full refund but the flea bite marks were souvenirs. Property manager was responsive.
