Thank you for letting me know. The guests that were at the house the week before you left the house in terrible condition. It took my cleaning lady twice as long to get the house back in livable condition. Sorry for the inconvenience but she did the best she could in the allotted time under the circumstances. She is usually very conscientious.

I wish that linens were included for the price, but that was our only real complaint. Neighbors are also much closer and more visible than I realized from the photos, but they were unconcerned with us, so it worked out just fine.

It’s a nice property but is older and needs some maintenance. The boards on the dock are designating. The boards on the deck are coming up and the nails sticking out. The beds need new mattresses. The door to the basement needs to be adjusted bc it doesn’t shut all the time. The ice maker didn’t work. We had a good time overall, the lake was beautiful

Excellent stay!

Great location and host was fantastic! It was even better than we expected. The house accommodated 8 adults easily and was extremely comfortable and cozy. Access to the water was a bonus as several in our party were over 65 - they were able to walk without much difficulty. We hope to be able to stay here again soon. What a wonderful getaway!

Log cabin paradise

The house was beautiful inside and out. Everything was very organized, neat and spotless. Loved the sand area to park the boat and jetski until it was time to get back on the water. My family really enjoyed staying at this home for a week it felt like home. We are looking forward to staying there again.

When I decorated the house I wanted my guest to feel like they were in their home rather than a hotel. Every year I try to add new things and update the old. I hope you will make The Dam Crows Nest you "go to" vacation get away.

Great stay

Nice to have bathrooms on every floor. Swimming off the dock was great. Pictures were accurate. Only misleading item was it stated it sleeps 18 but the price per night is based on 15 and then the add on for each additional person.

There are enough beds to sleep 15 guests. If guests want to bring air mattresses, I will allow up to 18 guests…. Thus the charge for extra guests.

Perfect Weather!

Love all the life jackets available! The sandy beach is great for little ones. We lucked out as the water temperature was perfect for swimming and floating. Lots of fun jumping off the dock and also having a campfire. We played charades on the deck with the nice outdoor couches.
