Horrible
The water and the scenery was nice, but inside the house one part of the floor was weak, the wash machine would not wash or spin out clothes, the upstairs bedroom have no air flow, I had to open the window, it is not secluded, there are people right next door that yell, cuz, and scream all night long. One of the bedrooms with the double beds had a horrible odor.

Quick get away
We enjoyed the property. It reminded us of our grandpas house which was all hand-made and wooden. We were able to introduce our kids to Monopoly and had a great time camping out in the giant family room. We took a walk on the properly and the fenced in area to take the dog out was a nice touch
