Loved this property! The bathroom was clean and spacious. The bed was super comfy. Loved being able to cook dinner and watch tv and then relax by the fire pit. Very close to town for groceries and bait shops. Fished off the private dock and launched our kayaks from there as well. Fran was amazing to communicate with and we had an amazing vacation. Would definitely recommend!!!!

Cabin was clean and well stocked Communication was great. The bed up in loft didn’t work for us but a couch futon is there ( little rough for two) and bedding provided. The boat launch access was great. We had a 21’ ranger boat with us so the best solution I found was to go in the first ridge circle and back into the bottom towards cabin, electric is within 15’ of back of boat. I did have with me a couple wheel chokes to be able to leave boat there while going to town. Peace and quiet and close enough to everything for us. Would recommend

James, I have never had that issue before and will reach out to VRBO and see if I can figure out what the problem is with the total being different for you. We hope that you’ll come back and stay with us again, and if you ever have any issues like that, please let me know so I can address it for you.
