Beautiful home with amazing views
The view was breath taking, so peaceful and tranquil!!! Home was beautiful, very nicely remolded, plenty of space for everyone. Jason was very easy to work with, enjoyed the kayak and paddle board and they had lots of games which we played well into the early morning. Home was nicely decorated, I would have given my stay a 5 however was disappointed the gazebo was not up (lots of jumping spiders) and the lack of a fire pit, other than that our stay was perfect..
Great Lake Home!
We enjoyed our stay in the lake! The house was clean and true to all the pictures. The location that has quiet neighbors and like other reviewers pointed out, it is right on the lake and so beautiful! Would recommend to anyone looking for a weekend get away on the lake. Jason was also a very friendly and accommodating host.
Nice enough, but...
The house was nice enough, location was beautiful. Our stay was marred, however, by the numerous rules, caveats, warnings, etc. that were found almost everywhere in the house. Nearly every table, window and bed had some type of sign indicating how it should be used/ treated. While anyone would want their house treated with respect, the owner went way overboard. If you are that paranoid, don't rent your house out.
We were also asked to clean the house, vacuum, put out the trash, and put linens in the laundry room, yet we had already paid a hefty cleaning fee which you would assume covers all the above.
And finally, and most disturbingly, it was obvious that someone else had been in the house during the daytime when we are out. The heat had been lowered and the bedroom door had been propped open with a trash can. We were upset at the thought that someone else had access to our belongings, especially the electronic devices. Not cool. Would not rent here again.
Another great trip to this gorgeous home!
Our family late summer get-a-away was a smashing success because of this home. The living space is beautiful and very inviting because it is so open. The kitchen has room for multiple cooks and storage. It's quiet and the views are amazing. The swimming was amazing- sandy with no weeds. It was very clean and had extensive supplies in stock. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend it!
All The Comforts Of Home
Another Great weekend Getaway!
Lost track of how many times we have rented? But have to tell all...
This house has everything you could want
For a vacation rental! Temperatures outside were near 100. Water was perfect.
View is amazing!
Thanks again Jason!

Beautifully updated lake house
The kitchen was a dream. Very well furnished with everything we could possibly need. Top end appliances and all the little necessities for cooking. Lovely cozy lake house all ready for family fun!
