We book the house in April. The house needs a deep cleaning. Especially the Kitchen. The evenings were cool and there were not enough extra blankets. The comforters are for summer weather. The water smelled and was really rusty. Unpon arrival the water in the kitchen sink dribbled out of the faucet and no water came out of the downstairs faucet. Contacted owner and he promply sent someone to look at the problem. The faucet screens were clogged and never really worked well after the service man left. We had a hard time regulating the Airconditioning during the day and the last night of our stay we needed Heat because it was going down into the low 40's. The thermostate failed and we had no heat. No extra blankets.I would not recommend staying at this house. Very outdated and needs alot of TLC.

Dear Sherri, Thank you for your feedback—especially after your stay concluded. We’re sorry again for the brief heater issue on the final night, which, as noted, was addressed within hours. We do find it a bit surprising that several of the other concerns mentioned were either resolved promptly during your stay or never brought to our attention at the time, as we’re always happy to fix things when given the opportunity. For clarity, the home is professionally cleaned and maintained between each guest, and we consistently receive positive feedback reflecting that. We also note that accurate guest counts and real-time communication tend to help ensure the smoothest possible experience for everyone involved. While we respectfully disagree with much of your assessment, we do appreciate you sharing your perspective and wish you the best in your future travels. Sincerely, John

Anastasia M.

Liked: Location
The location was good. Having a boat house was great. The house itself is big. But the wow factor is lacking. The host is responsive- nothing against him. He seemed receptive to my comments. The cleaners need to step up their game. Lots of dusty surfaces, and things that were overlooked like the refrigerator. The kitchen is an unorganized mess, pots and pans were worn out, but was told they were just replaced. So maybe we didn't look in the right spot for new ones. We always travel with a few kitchen items for this reason. The house is dated and could use some TLC as a rental. But it's also for sale, so I'm sure they don't want to put money into it. The parking situation for a house that sleeps so many is definitely lacking max 4 spots. But that seems to be the trend for Indian Lake. It was stated there was extra parking at the end of the street, but when you go down there, there is a sign posted "no parking" . The other backup option listed was the state park - specifically for truck and boat trailer. There is no trailer parking spots at the state park visitor parking. You would have to park sideways and take up multiple spots. We had a truck and boat trailer and suv with jet skis. We used Chippewa boat ramp and moved them daily instead. Never does the house state to be handicap friendly* but just noting that there are stairs at every entrance and the main level bathroom shower has glass doors that also make it hard to access for some. Just something to note.

We enjoyed our stay, the house was plenty big enough for our group of people, there were a few things that were less than par, but they were not major, they can be easily taken care of. We would stay there again. John if you email me I can tell you the things that can be fixed.
