We had very bad luck here…hope yours is better.
From start to finish we had issues. We were unable to use pizza oven that we planned for, nor the hot tub (smelled like something died), or patio/pool at night due to broken lights. The dishwasher did not work, broken and leaking kitchen sink/faucet, and lack of supplies. Soap dispeners were all watered down, no toilet paper or paper towels in home. Very frustrating stay, but the proximity to lake was nice and beds were comfortable. This was our worst rental, and I’ve had many and never any with issues like this. Hope it works out better for you.

Private Sanctuary
The property was as described and extremely private. We would definitely go back. I gave an overall 5 star as it was deserved. Being a new listing, I am going to make a few suggestions for improvement.
1) There are cameras outside in the front and rear of the house which startled some of the guests. I understand the reasoning but did not notice it in the listing (it is there) prior to my visit. I believe it should be addressed during the booking process or a heads up prior to arrival is in order.
2) The house has more amenities than are identified in the listing which required calls for clarification. Is there a coffee maker, is there firewood, are there towels for the pool et. cet.
3) For pool cleaners. mosquito squad, and other vendors I would recommend giving the renters a time window in lieu of "they may stop by during your stay"
I share these things to assist with the rentors perfection of the experience but the rental is a 5 star and I would return.

Amazing Home!
We are regulars to the area and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was well described and the area is great. We plan to be back and recommend staying here. The kitchen is great and well stocked and the grill is a huge bonus. Lots of outdoor spaces which is really nice and the indoor spaces were sufficient for the rainy days. Pool was a nice bonus as there are not too many houses with pools in the area. The property manager was responsive via text. Definitely a solid 5* place.
