Gem of a property - beautifully presented and comfortable

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I can't recommend this property more. Set back from the street overlooking the lake - this exceptionally comfortable property was an excellent choice for our stay for 12 people. The house is spacious and comfortable with quality furniture, beds and appliances and ample necessities provided for our 4-night stay. The outdoor area and pool a highlight to cool off in in the hot weather. Would definitely recommend to a friend as well as book again when next in the area!

Brand new property with a great backyard - pool and lake view. Nice outdoor set up and living areas. Kitchen was well equipped too when it came to crockeries and cutleries. The drive in was a little underwhelming but once in and get to the backyard it’s great. We had a large group and it catered to us well. The property manager Belinda was super responsive. A few things to change that would have made it even better: - bunk bed Linen had stains - Glass shards in the bathroom and in bath Mat from broken shower screen (we were informed of the damage a few days before we arrived and that it’s unlikely to be fixed by our arrival). - Someone was there working on the pool when we checked in and he stayed for a further half hour. Then the owner knocked on the door twice more the next day for pool maintenance purposes. Perhaps better done when guests aren’t there for privacy purposes. - not enough toilet paper, dishwashing tablets, liquids etc provided for 3 night booking for 12 people. Overall it was a good experience and would recommend this place!
