Really enjoyed our stay. Perfect for our long weekend away with an 11 year old and toddler. Great proximity to the lake and the marina where we rented a pontoon. Communication with host was great. Looking forward to booking again.

Loved the communication with the host. Made it a very comfortable stay knowing I could get a quick response on the check in process & any other questions I had. The cabin was super cozy and well equipped to relax after a day of work in the area. Will definitely be staying here again next time I’m in town.

Very nice quaint little place. Only complaint is that I would have liked it if the grass had been mowed. Tall and wet to walk through

The home itself was clean but the lawn was unkempt and needed to be mowed. Also unable to utilize the "lakefront" feature, informed kinda last minute was for kayak/boat use only. We were never informed the dryer was out of order until we arrived and it was posted on the appliance. Overall, okay stay but a bit disappointing, decided to leave a day early.

Response from VrboOwner on Jun 14, 2026
I’m sorry, our lawn guy is on a bi-weekly schedule. I think with the extra rain it grew faster or he skipped us? I’ve been out of town so wasn’t aware. I wish you could have let me know at the number I texted you and I could have had him come out the same day.
