Safety was our first concern. The bottom step was not even attached to the deck, and I twisted my knee. A pile of trash that was about 5 feet high and 20 feet long piled up against the fence The freezer in the refrigerator was frozen. You couldn’t have put anything in it. We didn’t even stay we left. We were there from 1:30 PM till seven and And left and feel we need a refund could not find a two minute path to the water. The property is misrepresented and it’s unsafe.

These renters tried to check in early without letting us know. The trash they refer to in their review is actually a wood pile so renters can enjoy campfires during their stay. They were right about one thing though. The lake is not a 2 minute walk… it’s 5! These folks were looking for a refund and misrepresentated our property in an attempt to get that refund. Cabin is safe and is a short walk to lake.

Great Small Getaway

The property was perfect for a couple or a very small family! The only downside was no oven but the electric burners worked perfect and we made it work for the 4 days and 3 nights we were there. It was a great place for a small weekend away!
