July 4th Getaway

This property worked out great for our family - 7 adults & 2 kids. We rented a pontoon boat and drove it right up to the dock so everyone could get on. The location is very easy to get to and felt very safe & secure.

The house itself was decent most properties around it look like junkie dumpy trash like The Hills Have Eyes and whoever their property manager is doesn't know how to run an air conditioning thermostat then has the nerve to call the client a liar and continuously text until 11:00 at night which is completely unprofessional sending cry face emojis whining about what's going to come out of their paycheck just never had an experience like this also only left one roll of toilet paper told us we were on our own for the rest we weren't informed that the paddle boat was broken until 10 minutes before we arrived even though I rented 3 months ago so yeah not my ideal stay I won't be back hopefully they get me management and things can go a little betterThey also left half empty wine and a bunch of bait rotting in the fridge never had anyone do that I've never had a thermostat at a location with a lockbox on it just not ideal
