Great Extended Family Vacation

Our family (11 adults, 1 baby, and a dog) were in the area for our niece's med school graduation from nearby LMU. While this location was a little farther out, it had anything and everything we needed for a most comfortable stay. Sharon Lowdon was most accommodating and responded very quickly. The ONLY thing that was a little weird, was having to go through the bathroom connected to the kitchen to get to the bunk room. A couple of times, people were locked out/locked in the room because someone was using the bathroom, but we were able to overcome the problem by announcing that bathroom would be in use for showering, etc. The TVs in the bunk room are all the same brand, so one remote was turning all the TVs on and off at the same time, so that was a little funny too. We just ended up using 1 TV at a time for sleeping white noise. While I thought those things were worth mentioning, it didn't detract at all from the overall rental. We have rented many vacation homes in the past, and this was one of the most well stocked places we have stayed. We highly recommend this house, and would definitely love to return if we find ourselves in the area again.

Wonderful!

We rented this property to stay closer to my daughter’s wedding. The house was immaculate and was well stocked with kitchen utensils and supplies. Excellent communication with the hosts. I would love to stay again when we didn’t have a wedding hanging over our heads! The drive is a little long, but worth it!

House was in super shape. Comfortable beds and lots of space for all of us (8 adults + 3 kids). Definitely the most stock place I’ve ever stayed. They even had marshmallow roasting sticks for the awesome fit pit. The house had everything and more. My only suggestion would be to have access to the washer & dryer so the beach towels could be washed. House is not on the lake but there is a rustic boat ramp just down the street. Probably best to use a close by marina to launch your boat unless boat is less than 20 feet.

Great time

House was beautiful and well equipped with everything you need. Nice quiet area. Lake is just around the corner with a five minute walk. We enjoyed the fire pit and the outdoor grill. And plus it was dog friendly so that was a bonus. All the neighbors seemed super nice. Make sure you stock up on groceries because the nearest big store is 30 minutes away. My family and I enjoyed the stay over Memorial Day weekend.
