We had a wonderful stay at this lake house. The property was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, with everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The lakefront location was beautiful, offering amazing views and peaceful surroundings.

One thing to know is there is no cell service. And we lost power for several hours twice during our stay to pack extra batteries and/or power banks.

A beautiful house that has an excellent layout for a large family or two small families. The lake is so quiet and peaceful. Canoeing around it was great. The bed is comfortable; the bedroom view is gorgeous. The only issue we had is a house is being built next door by the owner of this property. We would have appreciated a head's up that some construction noise would affect our stay as construction went all day, even on Saturday. We also showed up 90 minutes after check in time and the house was still being prepared as we pulled up. They were very nice and respectful, though. Bad cell phone reception affected our abilities to contact the owner with questions. Minor inconveniences, but overall a beautiful place to stay.

I am writing to formally express my disappointment regarding our recent 5-day stay at your property.Upon arrival, we had to clean the kitchen ourselves as it was left in an unacceptable state. While we received a partial refund for this, it did not compensate for the poor experience. Additionally, we lacked sufficient hot water for our group of four throughout the stay, and no plumber was sent to address the issue.Most frustratingly, we were subjected to loud construction noise from the neighboring site every morning starting at 6:45 a.m. I specifically asked Ingrid about potential noise before booking due to previous reviews, and she assured me there would be none. Given that the owner of our vacation rental also owns the construction work next door, this lack of transparency is particularly disappointing.As a property manager of over 100 units, I find the lack of accountability and the dismissive responses we received to be highly unprofessional. Suggesting that we simply "ran out" of water and that construction is unavoidable does not excuse the misinformation provided at the time of booking.I hope you will take this feedback seriously to improve the experience for future guests.
