Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Property is a bit more dated than photos appear. Upstairs and downstairs do not connect from the inside. Which is not uncommon in this area due to hurricanes but we were surprised by that. Over all good value for our family. We had a boat which is a must.

Photo Shoot

Utilized this perfect property as a staging area for a photo shoot we were trying to compose for a new boat model. While the weather did not cooperate fully, the property was fabulous

Lake Living with B.

Liked: Location
Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
I am writing to formally document several significant issues regarding our recent stay. While the host allowed an early check-in, the property was not in a habitable or accurately described state.Critical Utility Issues:No Water/Sanitation: A handyman was replacing the water heater upon arrival, but the cold water lines repeatedly cracked. He departed after 6:00 PM with the main water line turned off. We had no working toilets for 9 people and were forced to manually flush by pouring buckets of water into the basins.Continued Disruption: Repairs continued the following day, requiring the water to be shut off again, leaving us without facilities until we departed for the day at 1:00 PM.Misrepresentation of Amenities:Missing Hot Tub: The listing advertised a hot tub; none was present. Incomplete Kitchen: The advertised "second kitchen" lacked a refrigerator.Layout Non-Disclosure: The listing failed to mention that two bedrooms and a bathroom are only accessible by exiting the house and descending 19 outdoor stairs. With 4 children this was horrible. We would not have rented had this been in the description.Safety and Hygiene Concerns:Safety Hazards: The wood on the dock ladder was rotten/unstable. Outdoor electrical outlets were left uncovered. Outlet behind downstairs bed does not have a cover and has a water dripping mark. Outside stairs are broken and a tripping hazard.Kitchenware: Pots and pans were rustedI have photos of evidence for most things.
