Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Hosts were great with communication. The property was a little smaller than what pictures showed. Also the property could’ve been a little cleaner and better maintained. I’m not a fan of spiders and they were everywhere inside and out. In the end, we couldn’t find the dumpster to empty the trash so we had to bring it home with us.

Response from VrboOwner on 30 Aug 2026
We’re sorry to hear you couldn’t find the dumpster - the instruction and location are printed in the guestbook.
If you had asked, we could have guided you to find it.
The house is cleaned thoroughly in any setting bugs (spiders) can find their way in at anytime.
We are not aware of any maintenance issue as we stay on top of it - if you had communicated anything we would be able to address it. Nonetheless all we’re left with is this review
This was a great vacation home! This place had all you needed to stay and enjoy the outdoor and indoor activities! It was quiet and peaceful! The owners were very quick with communication. Would visit again!
The house is gorgeous with all the windows looking out to the water. The house was very clean and updated. The set up was perfect, we had 4 teenagers and two adults and it was a wonderful layout. Loved the kayaks and canoe. Would definitely go back. Peter was very pleasant to deal with responded back very quickly 😀 So glad we picked this place Would highly recommend it.
Such a perfect vacation spot for my family! I have four young kids and the home is full of thoughtful details that made it very manageable for us. It's also tucked into the woods so you can enjoy the feeling of being far far away, and yet you have restaurants and places to go within a very short drive (but we never wanted to leave). It was very peaceful and very fun. The swimming and boating were excellent and the home itself is very comfortable. My kids want to move there, and I don't blame them. The hosts seem like very lovely people and the communication was clear and immediate. Absolutely a place we would return to.
