We're glad you enjoyed your stay! It was a pleasure hosting you. We hope to see you again in the future.
Good location…only five minutes to get to all the fun in Old Forge! Great area for hiking, water sports, going out to eat, and shopping. The house was clean, and there was plenty of space for all 8 of us. Really liked the finished basement bonus area and being able to do laundry. There’s a short walk to the shore from the house that could be challenging for someone with mobility issues due to the tree roots on the path. But the path is pretty and First Lake is lovely. The shore is sandy and a nice place to read.
Everything was nice, the beds whoever were not comfortable
The only things that was a disappointing was the beds. Very hard or old beds that caved in the middle.

Thank you so much for staying with us! We're glad you enjoyed your stay. We will definitely address the beds. Thank you for your suggestion. We hope to see you again in the future!
Unfortunately the property did not get a walk threw before my guests and I arrived. The TV wouldn't connect during the whole stay. The smoke alarms went off by just running blow dryers (once). There were only two towels in upstairs bathroom. We found them in the dryer. Very dusty. The handle to the hot water in the shower fell off in the main floor bathroom. The clock didn't work and light bulb out in the ceiling fan. Never found the TV remote for downstairs bedroom.John a very young man came out to the property. He as well couldn't get the main TV to connect. He went and got batteries, a light bulb and glue.John changed the batteries in the clock, he did not have a ladder to change out the light bulb. John also glued the handle for hot water it fell off the next day.
This property is beautiful. The host had everything we could possibly need and a few extras that were much appreciated! It is very clean and looks exactly like the photos posted. We will be back!
