Lake of Egypt Family Vacation

Overall, our trip was great, and we really enjoyed our time on the lake! The house was okay, but didn't live up to our expectations based on the other great reviews. Pros:- smelled very clean upon arrival- beautiful view of the lake- good and convenient location- had most kitchen items needed on-hand- able to fish and swim off dock- owner responded to texts and gave clear instructions for check in, door code, departure, etc. Cons- towels had dog/musty smell (we bought laundry detergent and sanitizer and a few new towels at Dollar General to use)- in need of some small repairs/deep cleaning (door frames were dirty and had moisture around them, black bugs in living room vent, bathroom vent fans were very dusty, uneven floor board near kitchen island) - charcoal grill was rusty (we had to buy aluminum grill grates at Dollar General to use it) and no lighter on site- some dishes were dusty/dirty and needed cleaned before using- beach is in need of clean up and fresh sandHas great potential with a few improvements!

Beautiful scenery

We spent one week here. Everything was great- the hosts were extremely nice and helpful. My husband has stage 4 pancreatic cancer and we wanted to go where we could relax and enjoy the scenery while he is still feeling ok. We were not disappointed! The house was very nice and the scenery was breathtaking. We hope to go back !

Family Get-a-Way

When we arrived the house was clean and just as it was shown in the pictures. Although the house looks small when you pull up there is adequate room. There were 6 of us that stayed and our daughter and son-in-law visited. The kitchen had everything you need and the linens that are provided are nice. We also rented the pontoon boat which was so nice for the day. The views and fishing off of the dock was nice as well. We live close but just wanted a quick get-a-way and this was perfect.
