Unique Melrose Home w/ Private Dock & Lake Access!

We're so glad the house worked well for your family gathering! It really does offer great space for groups to spread out, and we're happy the unique layout, with the sunken living room and those distinctive step-down showers, added to the charm of your stay.

We are happy you enjoyed the house and property. Our aim is to provide you with everything you need so you can get to relaxing and making memories.

We're glad you found the home clean, comfortable, and just as advertised, and that you'd recommend it to others visiting Lake Santa Fe. We're sorry the low water levels made the dock inaccessible by boat during your stay, though we know that was outside anyone's control. Since your visit, August rainfall has raised the lake level by about 6 inches, making the dock more accessible again. We appreciate you sharing your experience and hope future guests get to enjoy the peaceful, relaxing setting with easier lake access.

Cathy, I’m glad you enjoyed the lake, house, and historical Melrose. We look forward to your return visit.

From the owner:"Ralph, thank you for your feedback. I’m very sorry that one of the air conditioning units wasn’t functioning properly during your stay. The property has three units in total, two of which were working correctly. Unfortunately, the fan on the unit servicing the front living room and Florida room was not operating as it should.All units were working during the pre-check, and it seems there was a communication breakdown as neither I, the guest contact, nor Evolve received any message about the issue. Had we been informed, we absolutely would have responded promptly to assist you, as that is always our practice."

Thank you for your feedback—we’re glad to hear you enjoyed the property. We want our guests to rest easy during their stay and apologize if you experienced any discomfort from the heat. During periods of extreme temperatures, we recommend keeping the sunshades and drapes closed on the west-facing windows. The Florida room may feel warmer than the rest of the house due to sun exposure. Closing the French doors to this room can help prevent heat from flowing into the main living areas. While the Florida room is all windows, it is equipped with shades and fans for added comfort. Because it is not ducted like the rest of the house, it can feel warmer than the thermostat setting, and these measures can help ensure a more comfortable experience for future guests.
