Great stay
We needed a place close to my inlaws to stay for Thanksgiving that was pet friendly because our dogs dont get along. The property was really nice and had everything we needed. The property managers were also very accomodating. Would definitely stay here again

Our Stay/Parking
Very Clean,
There is some type of cold-water issue. New faucet was put in on the kitchen sink while we stayed. Sometimes cold water and the other time none came through the cold-water line.
Very slow on return of Security deposit been two weeks and still not took care of.
Parking was an issue when the other guest got there with car and truck with boat and trailer took a lot of space up.
Especially when there was a pontoon parked in the driveway on the side we had to park. Trying not hit the hitch on the pontoon and parking our vehicle out of the road. We had to walk in the grass around the pontoon to get to our cabin side entrance.
