Suzanne was very helpful and communicated well. The property was clean and nicely decorated. We loved the view from the deck. Lots of wildlife... from the eagle that was perched in the tree above to the little lizard walking across the railing and on side of house and the turtle and schools of fish in the lake below. Took a walk up to the park up the road where we spotted a Sandhill crane in the lake and a beautiful Red-tailed hawk setting on the playground slide. We enjoyed our stay, very relaxing.

The boat not being available was disappointing, but it turned out to be not that difficult to find one. The deck and walkway need a good pressure washing. Now that we have visited the area I would rent the unit again it was clean inside and well stocked. I would suggest a few beach towels. It was a little musty at first but we added a few glade plug ins and let it air out.
