We stayed 5 nights at this lake house. The views of the lake from all upstairs rooms were great. The deck was a great place to BBQ and eat, or have morning coffee and relax with a book. We had up to 7 people during our stay- My husband and I, our two teenage boys, my parents and brother in law. The house was spacious with all bedrooms, except the master, downstairs along with a bathroom and family room. Our boys liked to hang out and play video games, foosball and watch TV downstairs. It was 100-111 degrees (record breaking?) all week and the downstairs stayed cool. The swamp cooler in the kitchen upstairs was a lifesaver. The house is nicely furnished, great well stocked kitchen, clean and nicely tiled bathrooms, and a good layout for many people.

The water level at the lake was a little low, with a steep hike straight down to the lake. I'm guessing the picture from the deck of the lake was taken in winter with a higher water level, but we walked each day down the street to the West ramp where there is a nice beach to put up a shade cover and hang out (fairly level, soft sand, mostly smooth rocks for tender feet!). In the area below the house and decks is an opening that frequently had many deer grazing and lying in the shade of the trees- they were amazing to watch.

Our rental was handled by Cindy at Oak Shores Realty. She was very helpful in answering all our questions and getting us set. We were also contacted by Lin, the owner, and she was so nice and made sure our questions were answered and left a contact number in case we needed something while we were there. I was a little put off by all the rules the Oak Shores Community Association had for staying in that area, but it really didn't end up a problem and everyone we met in the area was friendly and very helpful.

We would definitely stay here again. (for perspective- I don't care for a Best Western or Ramada and prefer a Hyatt or Marriott when we travel- this was a nice place!).
