Liked: Cleanliness
I had an amazing stay at Sharmila’s lakehouse. She had everything we needed to ensure a fun and safe stay. The house was super clean and Sharmila was always readily available to answer any questions whenever we needed. I would recommended anyone else to stay here and book with Sharmila. The place was beautiful and I’d love to come back!

Pigsty

The property is beautiful and the inside looks nice but that’s where the positive ends. Upon arrival at 4:00 we could not enter because there was a cleaner there still cleaning. Upon entry, a half hour later, the floors were soaking wet and slippery. The garbages were not empty in the bathrooms. The bedding was not freshly laundered. The oven was full of dirty pans(one full of oil). There was open bags of chips shoved in a kitchen drawer. The smoke detector beeped all night long because of a faulty battery. The fridge was unusable because of the rancid smell of rotting fish inside of it. The response from the management was that they would remedy any issues and then no results. They offered late check out the next day which we were not able to do. The filth did not encourage us to spend extra time at the house. The response from the hosts ended abruptly with no remedy. This was the most disappointing rental property I have ever been to.
