Great property

This was a beautiful and unique property overlooking the lake, and in a great location. The home was very nice and spacious and was well stocked with kitchen essentials. Just a few observations: outside of the home and dock could use a good power wash as there were lots of cobwebs, mayflies, bugs, etc. Upstairs tv would not work; however this was not a big issue as we were mainly outdoors or on the water most of the time, and just used the one downstairs. Master bath shower tile could also use a deep clean. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and would rent this again.

Great place, Lots of room.

We are planning on going back to this rental next year. The owners were extremely nice. The house was clean and pleasant to stay in. It rained while we were there, we didn't hey to use the outside fire pits and grills. Shopping was pretty close, and convenient. The game room down stairs was nice. There was plenty of games and musical instruments to keep the young ones happy. If you like reading there were also a lot of books there.

/Comfortable house, lots of stairs to the dock

Read it all, please. : ) The Good- Large, comfortable house, with bedrooms separated by other rooms so quiet and private personal spaces. Best stocked kitchen we've ever found in a rental, with plenty of room for food storage, lots of Corelle dishes, glasses, cutlery-- all nice items, not mix and match from Goodwill. : ) Large dining table with room to move around it (always a plus) and seating in both upstairs and downstairs living rooms. Lots of outdoor seating on both upper deck and patio/lawn area. Plenty of hot water too. We didn't find the beds to be extremely comfortable, but manageable. Lots of towels, extra blankets, etc provided. Lots of board games, as well as ping pong-- again, with space to move around. Lots of paddles and ping pong balls provided. There is plenty of parking for boat trailers and several cars, and easy access to the house. Jumping off the upper level of the dock was a blast for the young and young-at-heart! The Not-So-Good- There is barely a view of the lake from the house or yard. I love trees and live in the woods, but thought a lakefront house would have a view of the lake. There is no view of the dock at all from the yard or house-- none at all. The picture of the dock is a bit misleading. The dock picture looks much better than the dock itself. There are 58 steep, narrow steps from the corner of the backyard down to the dock. We didn't take many of our kayaks and paddleboards down due to the steps. Worse still, my husband struggled to make it up and down at all. There is no "walk-in" area for little ones. The swim ladder is slimey, has no upper handrail, and angles under the edge of the dock, so while the kids scrambled up and crawled out, it was awkward and difficult for me. My husband didn't even attempt it, and never got in the water. My SIL secured it a bit better, and wedged a board under it to reduce the angle, but it's the worse dock ladder we've had. (BTW, I asked for pictures of the steps, yard, driveway, etc. and never received any or allowed to view the outside of the property at the owner's convenience.) The community pool was clean and nice, with lots of tables and umbrellas, but the water was 93 degrees F. It's been a hot summer, but I've never been in a warmer pool. The Ugly- Due to the required light at the dock, there are spider webs, etc, galore. The back of our boat was covered in ??? each morning. Overall we'd give the house an A- but the dock a C at best.

Great Family Hangout

This home offers comfort and anything you need. Kitchen stuff, grills, outdoor seating, plus room to hang out in the living and dining area inside. We loved sitting on the porches in the shade, as well as on the upper dock in the sun watching the boats go by. The owner is very easy to work with and also responsive to any needs we have. Will definitely stay here again!

Just a Perfect Water Sport Getaway Home !

We had a great time staying here for the week. Launched my boat in the gated community boat launch 2miles away. We water skied, tubed and swam right in front of the boat dock while family members sat topside watching. Water depth was excellent (over 8ft ) right off the dock. Home had ton's of space for guests and us. Very functional boat dock setup and the upper level sun cover was the best!

Very Nice House on the Lake

The house worked really well for us, and came with everything we needed and more. Dakota was great, and helped us out with everything we asked for. Like many of the other reviews, we also noticed that the house could use a good deep cleaning. Other than that, we had no issues and would absolutely stay here again.

Very nice vacation rental

My family had a wonderful time at this house! It had absolutely everything we needed aside from food. Tons of books, games, dishes and pots/pans. We loved the dock and the kids especially loved the canoe/kayak. The house was clean but could use a little TLC. I would definitely rent again and would recommend anyone looking for a beautiful vacation house to rent this one.

Great getaway

The lake house is very cute. There were a lot of spider webs inside the house and especially on the dock. I know the lake draws those little critters but the inside of the house could use some extra clean up on those. Overall very nice get away. The owner was super nice and helpful. Would rent again.

Overall it was a great place to stay but, it needs a deep cleaning from ceiling to floor!

My family and I had a wonderful time plenty of room for everyone. The house itself was nice and charming. I love the the back yard and the view of the lake but, a little outdated and extremely dirty in side and out. My sister and I had to do some serious cleaning when we got there. Not how I wanted to spend my first day of vacation! With that being said, I would stay again.

Wonderful time on the lake

Overall, our 2 families had a wonderful stay at the house. Dakota was very quick to respond to all of my questions before arriving. He was pleasant to work with. The house had a great setup for 2 families with the 2 king beds and 3 additional bedrooms. It had a ton of plates, utensils, bowls, etc. The dock was lovely to relax on and we used the boat dock for our boat rental. The upper deck of the dock had a parachute material type of cover so that was perfect to block some of the sun. With temps in the 90s, the AC worked great, no problems there. Our only issue with the property was that it truly needs a deep clean. The house was surface cleaned (kitchen looked great) but there were cobwebs and dust, dead bugs, small hairs, etc in the bathrooms, corners and on the tile floor downstairs. We cleaned some of that up when we got there, and not a huge deal or anything that ruined our vacation! Thank you Dakota for being so responsive, and sharing your home with us.
