We had 12 people but only wash cloths for 8. We had to wash towels for a 5 day stay. The grill brush needs to be replaced. We had to buy more toilet paper. We had to get rid of some cobwebs upstsirs. The blinds in the main floor bathroom were very dirty and part was broken. Overall it served our purpose. The 3rd bathroom is in the basement but the shower is small and no lighting other than over the sink. It was nice having an extra fridge in the basement for drinks and a hangout spot for the kids.

Avoid if you can
First of all, property pictures convey its more upscale property but its not. We stayed in the property, the utensils provided were dirty, we had to clean it first to be able to use it. Property had safety hazards, as there were nails out and one of kid also got hurt, when reached to property host, she responded saying sorry it happened to you but i will send someone to repair it after your stay. (why do i bother if she repairs it or not later)Property is only 2 bathrooms vs 3 bathrooms mentioned in listing, as 3rd bathroom is in basement whose shower is too small to use, we had kids use it and it was water clogged. Bedrooms have no door locks on 2nd floor. there are not enough chairs/sofa to even sit 8 adults forget about 16 as marketed by property. If you can, please avoid this property, its not worth it.

Great Home for Memorial Day
This home was perfect for our multigenerational family get away. We enjoyed the two living spaces and the ping pong table was a hit. The listing was very accurate and the property manager went above and beyond!

Senior Band trip in comfort
I am the band director at a rural school in Nebraska. Each year my husband and I take the seniors on a trip of their choosing as a last time together. We stayed in this rental and it was very comfortable and perfect for our group. The check in was easy and we had all that we needed. The location was very nice with the lake a short walk away and it was easy to get to the attractions we visited. Thank you!

It was an okay stay
It looked spotless up until you get in the bed it’s like crumbs of something
The hot water barely wanted to work when it was time for showers
She tries to charge for everything like if you spill something on her sheets you’re getting charged the price to buy a whole new one

Great house and neighborhood
We had a great stay. Plenty of space in the house for 10 people. Very clean and matched photos and descriptions. Only negatives was bedding was not consistent. Some beds much more comfortable than others. Also for house that holds 12 people cookware was very limited. Other than that we loved it
