  My family of five adults along with our dog had a wonderful time at Cool Waters. 1 bedroom for the parents was nice size with desk. The "glassed in" porch slept the rest. Large kitchen / living area was very nice and comfortable. Two bathrooms serviced us well. Great decks to enjoy the beautiful water and play guitars and games. We rented kayaks for one of the days which was great fun. This is the perfect spot to kayak with the large rock formations right in front. The neighbors were really friendly. We will return!

  This was a great escape for Easter weekend for me and my grown children and German Shephard. Lovely home and sparkling. Every convenience available. Beautiful views day and night. And the 2 decks are where you want to me constantly!

  What an absolutely beautiful home to have spent our vacation in. The interior of the home is just exactly as it is in the photos, very warm and comfortable, lots of windows and beautiful landscaping. The location is a PRIME location for swimming with both kids and dogs-the water is clean and very cool-be aware if they are generating water from the Dam. Only a couple of complaints: For all practical purposes, this is the owner's guesthouse. We were told they lived next door.The only thing separating this residence from their house is a sidewalk/small courtyard. Not that we were trying to hide anything or do anything wrong, but it felt like we were staying in someone's home that we didn't know. The patios, grills and boat dock are shared with the main residence, so we were a little hesitant about being able to relax. Also, do not plan to use the boat lift. This is occupied by the owner's boat and is not accessible as described. We tied our boat up to the dock and it was fine, just not what was described or what we expected. Biggest Complaint: lack of accessibility to the property and the lack of instructions we received about how tight the streets were and location of the boat ramp. We have a 4 door Chevrolet truck and were pulling a 21 foot pontoon boat. When we arrived, the house is on a dead end, and guests are not suppose to park in the driveway (that's where the owners park). Guests park up a hill from the residence in a separate lot. There was no one to tell us where the boat ramp was, how to get there, etc, not to mention the road was so tight we had to literally back all the way back down to the next street to turn around. So we quickly unloaded all of our belongings from the driveway-thankfully there was a neighbor around who told us where the boat ramp was and helped us get backed out and turned around. The boat ramp is NARROW. If it's in the middle of the day it is ROUGH. There is no room for error on the trailer backing or the boat launch. When park your truck/trailer, you will have to unhook the trailer and move by hand. If you have a large rig, this is not a good rental option! Last thing: When we booked/paid for this we were treated great. Every correspondence thereafter was very short and seemed as though we were a bother. Also, we were never once checked on during our stay-even after the electricity went out for 2 hours on the 4th of July. I rated it average because of a lack of customer svc. Home itself it beautiful!

  Owner response: Yes, this home is next door to the owner’s house, as we advised the renter (they even stated that they were aware it is next door to their property). However, they state that a “sidewalk” separates the two homes, which is NOT true. There is a large courtyard that separates both homes. The next door neighbor on the other side of the home is actually closer to Cool Waters than our main house is! We have been renting out Cool Waters for almost 15 years, and we have many return customers who are very happy with the accommodations, as these guests even have admitted to. They “felt like they were staying in someone’s home they didn’t know” - isn’t that what a vacation rental home is? Most homes that are rented out ARE owned by someone else that lives or stays there on occasion. Cool Waters is strictly a lake home vacation rental and no one lives there full time or long term. It is only used for vacation rentals and it is set up strictly for that. We provide written directions to all of our properties, including directions to the boat ramp, I’ms assuming the renter failed to read ALL the info we provided.
