The listing for this property requires several updates to accurately reflect it current state. It is in a beautiful area, the property itself requires some TLC. Deck boards are loose or broken, railings are loose, floors boards in the house are warped, only one working bathroom sink, fridge barely keeps things cold, grill only has two working burners. The canoe and kayaks have no life jackets

We came on 10th left within hours to a hotel. Called Verbo customer service for a refund from host who hung up on us. Mold smell throughout house rotting deck boards a foot can go through. Windows don't open properly. Junk outside everywhere. Dirty deck chairs. Not pleasant at all. Bugs in emuostairs bedroom. Outlets not covered. No GFC outlets near sinks. Never want to stay here! Dirty. Verbo opened a case. Hope for reimbursement

Beautiful view

Fun location with a short walk from the small parking area to the house. May be a little challenging for people with mobility issues. Check in process was easy. Nice little picnic table set up to eat right at the waters edge. Water pressure in the kitchen and upstairs bathroom were very weak and there were no check out instructions but John and Barb responded in a timely manner. Would stay again.

Fall vacation

Home away from home! Great place on the lake. Property was fully stocked and owner very accommodating. Be prepared for stair walking with many decks. Renting a golf cart to get up to the house from the shared parking area is a must when you have luggage and groceries for a week’s stay. Well worth it for the views and fire pits on multiple decks. Would definitely stay here again!

It was quiet and perfect for our family and well worth the short hike! If you have a disabilty please keep in mind it is not handicapp accessible. Also, note sheets are not included, but we were referred to a local store and the prices were resonable. We had an amazing stay and the property manager was responsive and a pleasure to work with.

Do NOT Book

House is not as depicted. We realized immediately upon arrival it was not habitable. We left immediately and requested a refund. Hosts refuse to respond to us and VRBO agents for a requested refund. The agents reviewed the photographs provided and agreed a refund was warranted. The location was great. Such a shame the house was so neglected. Please review the photos and ask yourself if you want to sit on those chairs and enjoy the view, or cook on that grill, or get eaten alive by bugs because of the AC set up. The deck had broken planks, trash strewn about and bowed when you walked on it. Same for the stairs- splintered, broken and/or bowing. Stained beds, stained pillows, broken furniture… I could go on but I won’t.

About the host

Hosted by Barb

Host profile image
We are a couple who met in college and have been married for 40 years. We love coming to the house and enjoy the beautiful, peaceful environment. We are planning to both be retired soon.

Why they chose this property

When we saw this unique private island, we were mesmerized by the expansive views, we knew we found a peaceful home. It is great for boating and fishing or just relaxing.

What makes this property unique

We love the private features of island living, compared to the congestion of being on a main road. The views are unbelievable....You can kayak or enjoy the canoe. We have a private dock and you can bring your boat or jet ski. It feels like you are in a cabin in the woods, but with lake views. Best of ALL worlds!
