We enjoyed our stay and location of house. It was easy to dock boat and park in yard. We also enjoyed being next to Tiki bar with a live band, The house was clean and everything went as planned.

Our overall experience was disappointing. The Cottage is nicely furnished, clean, and offered water sport enthusiasts an ideal location. The sunroom did not have air conditioning. Lake location suggested was permanently closed. 25 mile drive to access county lake. 7 fee per day.Kurig coffee filter moldy. Living room TV was not able to connect to wifi.Location not friendly for small children.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Jul 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you found the cottage clean, comfortable, and enjoyed the waterfront location. We're sorry to hear some aspects of your stay fell short. The home is cooled by a single window A/C unit, and on especially hot summer days we understand the sunroom can become less comfortable. We also appreciate you pointing out the outdated lake access information and will update our guidebook. The moldy Keurig filter and TV connection issue are certainly not up to our standards, and we wish we had been notified during your stay so we could have addressed them right away. Thank you again for your comments—we appreciate the feedback and the opportunity to improve.

Nice and as advertised.

Very clean and user friendly. Great proximity to lake, boat launch and that tiki bar. Be aware you can hear the tiki bar music at night on the weekends. Great hiking, fishing, bird watching and swimming in the area.
