Very nice quaint little place. Only complaint is that I would have liked it if the grass had been mowed. Tall and wet to walk through

I’m sorry, our lawn guy is on a bi-weekly schedule. I think with the extra rain it grew faster or he skipped us? I’ve been out of town so wasn’t aware. I wish you could have let me know at the number I texted you and I could have had him come out the same day.

Great communication with owners. Close to lake. Property was up for sale, but we were not informed of that. There was a separate lockbox for the realtor and we were worried they’d have a showing during our stay. Cute decor; nicely decorated. It could’ve been cleaned better; everything was quite dusty. Overall nice place would just recommend a better cleaning.

Response from VrboOwner on 7 May 2026
Thank you for your feedback. I will inform our new cleaning person about the dust. Even though we have the property up for sale as an investment there are never any showings while guest are staying. Good to know though, we will let future guests know that the property is for sale but their privacy will not be interrupted during their stay. Thank you for your input.
