Charles, I'm sorry you didn't enjoy your stay with us. My impressions from the moment you checked -in is that you were looking for a discount. In fact, you asked me to send that refund to your daughter, which is very strange. I confirmed the internet was working and I suspect you had trouble due to your age. additionally the HVAC system is 2 years old and works great. I suspect you had challenges with thermostat.

Our stay was very relaxing. Lots of games for the family to enjoy. The dock was amazing for fishing. Only a few hiccups, the stove needs to be replaced very slow took over an hour to bake biscuits, but hey we had the time to wait and relax no biggie. The screen porch was amazing we spent much of our time outdoors. I would book again for sure. Host was very responsive.

House was pretty old and had musty smell. The dishwasher did not work and there was no guest book with info about local restaurants or services. The sunrises each morning were beautiful and fishing was fun!

For a stay of several days, attention to cooking—the kitchen and oven—could be improved in the future. Our overall experience was good, the place was quiet, and kayaking/ fishing was good entertainment. The best part was the easy and quick communication with the owner. Thank you very much for letting us use your house; we spent these holidays with family. Happy 2026

Perfect Stay In Get Away

My fiance and I love to just get away sometimes and fish. When we say this listing we thought it would be perfect and IT WAS!This place had all the things available to you and the dock was great to fish off of and shaded for our dog to chill along with us.
