The dock and beach front are very nice. The kitchen had everything that we needed to prepare several meals. We also enjoyed using the gril and sitting on the upper deck. The upper deck has a gate that kept our 2 dogs from the yard, a big plus!The location is good for boating and is close to the state park.

We are glad you enjoyed your time at the home. We would love to hose you and your family again.
We loved our stay at Lakeside.
The back yard and dock are great, no steep stairs to climb to get there! They supply more goods than most houses.
It was voted one of the best houses we’ve stayed in at SML.

Thanks for the review! So glad you enjoyed your stay. We would love to host again next summer!
This home was the perfect get away for my young family. We loved how easy it was to get to the lake and dock. Docking our boat was simple. We enjoyed lounging on the dock and a few visits from the ice cream truck!

Thanks for staying with us Melissa! We look forward to hosting again.
Great house! We had an amazing time.
Kids loved the downstairs, the size of the yard and the bedrooms upstairs. We will definitely book this house again. This house works is great anytime of the year.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stat, and we look forward to having you stay with us again the next time you come to the lake.
Nice cozy four bedroom, but spacious. Property is in excellent location and the house was extremely clean. We really enjoyed this location and plan on staying again. This rental house is one of the best furnished rental homes that we have ever stayed in. Well stocked and supplied with all the comforts of home. Just pack your clothes and go!

Thanks for the great review Benjamin. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We would love to host you again!
We had a wonderful experience. We absolutely loved the house and dock! It was a quiet location and turned out to be the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. Thank you for saving our vacation. We were bummed that we were unable to go to Charleston, SC due to the hurricane but this turned out to be an amazing trip even though it was a last minute plan!

Thank you ! This is why most everyone books the lake ! This is a great place ... the owners take great care of the home as well and we look forward to having you back ... sooner rather than later- !
The property is very clean. It is a great location on the lake with a beach area for kids. It is well stocked, even providing a canoe, paddle board and kayak! I would definitely stay there again. The inside steps are steep for the elderly but there is a bedroom on the main floor. The hosts have thought of everything a family might need!

Thanks for the review Deborah! So glad you enjoyed your stay. Your welcome back anytime!
Dock & Back Yard are great. Inside needs a lot of work
The ceiling is leaking and when we arrived the house was filthy. The kitchen and floors appeared as though they weren't cleaned at all after the previous tenant.

Thank you for your feedback. I wish you had contacted us during your stay so we could have addressed these issues in real time. We take pictures after every clean, and cleanliness is our main priority. We will look into the leak and address it promptly. We hope you were still able to enjoy your stay, and we hope we can host you again in the future.
One of the best rental properties i have been too. Including how clean it was. After renting numerous properties i am not surprised if i walk around in my socks and then i have to throw them away how dirty the floors are. This is not about this property. I was pleasantly surprised! Plus the house has a lot of character. Some of the chest of drawers outdated but they do have that character. Overall great stay ! Thank you!

We are so glad to here you enjoyed your stay at the lake. We would love to host you again.
Very comfortable for our family and doggies. One negative was hot tub which was frozen over because it had been left open and when we thawed it was only half full and not looking clean enough to use. Kitchen well equipped and comfortable beds awesome lake view

Thanks for the review Joe! Thanks for letting us know about the hot tub. We have hired more grounds staff to make sure things like this don't happen in the future. We are glad you otherwise enjoyed your stay! We hope to host you again sometime soon!
This property is one of the very best I have rented at SML.
The fenced in backyard and easy access to the dock are especially nice if you have dogs, and don’t like to climb steep hills to get from the dock back to the house.
The house is very nice, and well equipped with just about anything you need. Unlike most rentals, they actually supply paper towels, TP, soaps, and detergents. Sheets and towels are also included, and to my pleasant surprise-after a long drive, and shopping the first day, you find the beds are already made!
Highly recommend this place!

Thank you for taking the time to leave us such nice comments. We appreciate it and look forward to hosting you again at the lake.
The house is well situated on the lake with a really nice dock and lots of water toys. The kitchen was well equipped and the house stocked with essentials. My grandkids enjoyed the games and books. The two bedrooms on the top floor were a bit warm but there are fans in them. The air conditioning system failed twice. The property managers responded quickly and had it serviced within a few hours. We had a wonderful week!

We loved everything- although the house was extremely hot and the upstairs bedrooms were not comfortable due to the high heat. There were some items left in the oven so we just left them too- old pizza tray not washed and frig. handles had never been washed between rentals- but I scrubbed them up a bit. We really like airport road area so we hope to rent a different house in the same area next time.

Thanks for the feedback Joseph. We have shared this with our housekeeping team. We appreciate all guest feedback. We would love to host you again.
The location was perfect. Not a large hill to climb or stairs to the lake and dock like a lot of other properties. The house was well stocked with kitchen and bathroom supplies. Towels are included. Only issues i can claim having was that a car came up to the house with property management (they said) and wanted to come inspect the house. We had just arrived back to the house after boating for a few hours. If we did not get home just then, these folks would have been inside the house where we had all our stuff out, thinking it is secured from strangers. They said someone did not check it off as a cleaned unit after the last guests, so i can see that. I cannot see someone coming up with two people and trying to get into the house. It felt a bit fishy. Also, the number of emails and texts are a bit much. Everything can be said with 2 or 3 emails and one or two texts. Even after the stay we are getting emails and texts bullying us to write a review among other things. I would stay again, but i would prefer to be left alone while i am on vacation. I dont need drop-bys and emails all the time. I am there to get away from that stuff.

Thank you for your feedback Bill. We have relayed this back to our team and apologize, we try to make sure our guests know we are available if there are any issues. I can assure you our team would not have gone in the house if you were not there and it was after check in time. That aside we are very happy you enjoyed your stay and would love to have you back anytime. Thanks!
House was exactly as described! It had a good location on the lake but was a little secluded than activities on the lake (if you didn't have a boat.) Floating dock needs a few nails repaired, especially the one that is right in front of the ladder to get down into the lake. There is a storage unit down on the dock with plenty of toys and floats, but no directions on finding the key to open it out how to use the sound system. We only discovered the storage unit and the sound system on our last day after we spotted the key inside and googled, how to use the system. Overall, we had a great trip and it accommodated us perfectly.

Neighborhood was nice and quiet. Appreciated having the firewood provided to use. House was clean and had everything we needed to prepare meals at home.
As advertised with the exception we felt the pictures may have been a bit misleading with the rooms. The stairs to upstairs were a little steap for half the party but we had a great time. Cute rustic cabin!
