Absolutely perfect setup for our 3 families - 11 total people - with plenty of room to spread out. Super fun house with great hangout spaces for both kids and adults, well insulated, responsive host, and it stayed cool despite the high daily temps. Our family loved this community as our home base to visiting many state and national parks. We would all absolutely return!

The house was in immaculate shape and matched the photos perfectly. We stayed for a few days for a golf trip and the experience was fantastic. Outside of our golf outings, we didn't feel the need to leave the house / community as it had so much to keep us entertained already. Check in and communication with ownership were top notch and I wouldn't hesitate to come back to Ember / this house again!

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
The house is great. The management not so much. Here is a list of my frustrations. 1- We were told the home had a 3 car garage and parking in the driveway for multiple cars. The home has a 2 car garage, and no driveway. The garage is on the access road. Very frustrating.2- The air conditioning on second floor was out for most of our time we were there. The temperature in that part of the home was in the high 80s making 3 of the bedrooms unlivable. The manager was rude and not helpful getting this fixed. After 4 days of complaining they finally sent an actual HVAC technician. What a joke.3- Twice during our stay the pool guy walked through the side door into the pool area without any notice or knocking. This scared our children who were swimming and was not professional. When you are spending 8000 to rent a home for 5 nights you expect better care and service.

This was a mommy/kid trip and everyone enjoyed the trip. There was space to play or to relax or swim. There were toys for the big lake and we didn't have far to walk to get there, the gate was very close. We had a great stay
