Our group of 9 adults had an amazing time together!! Weather wasn’t the best but that’s not anything we can control. Regardless, we weren’t bored and were able to get a lot of fishing in, relaxing, billiards, and games. We had a great time celebrating together!! Looking forward to coming back again.

Awesome outside area. Issues inside
Awesome view & outside area. The home was very nice, plenty of room, lots of games for the one rainy day we had. The beds were all very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. Now for the issues...upon arrival we had ants (not just a few either) in the kitchen. We reached out to the host contact they said maintenance would be out in the morning, they did not show up until Monday. They did what they could but it was raining so spraying outside near doors etc didn't do much and couldn't spray inside because we were there. They left the spray a d we did it the next day when we were going to be out for a bit. Still battled the ants the rest of the week. The air conditioner does not cool the upstairs very well...at one point it was 90 degrees upstairs with the air on...very uncomfortable. The owner did have maintenance come out and install windows units in the bedrooms and a small refund. Overall beautiful property...Just don't want to deal with these issues while on vacation.

Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the beautiful views, spacious home, comfortable beds, well-stocked kitchen, and game room.
We sincerely apologize for the ant issue and the upstairs air conditioning. Once you notified us, we scheduled maintenance as quickly as possible. Due to the weather and the home being occupied, only a limited treatment could be completed during your stay. We have since arranged for additional pest control to fully address the issue.
To improve your comfort, we installed window air conditioning units in the upstairs bedrooms during your stay and provided a partial refund. We are also working on a long-term solution for the upstairs cooling.
We appreciate your comments and hope you'll give us another opportunity to provide the exceptional stay you expected.
The house is fantastic...I don't think I've spent so much time outside in a long time... so many sitting areas...sooo much LAKE! loved every minute of it.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay. I have noted your request and will see what we can do. Hope you come again.
This property was perfect for myself, kids and grandchildren. The communication was top notch, home supplied us hours of fun at the house. If we are up this way again we all would love to stay here again. The home had all the amenities to keep you entertained and we were able to enjoy the lake and it’s view.

We had a great time by the lake with the kids. View was beautiful, kids had a blast fishing (caught a 27 inch catfish!) and jumping off the dock. Had a couple friends over and enjoyed the lovely evening views. Kids enjoyed kayaking. We appreciated the extra towels for the lake. Overall, we had great family time and would definitely consider coming back.

Great House & Great Outside/View
The house has a great layout and very clean. Outside space in the back has great seating areas and spectacular view! We have stayed here twice and enjoyed it both times. The house had everything we needed and alot of extras.
Very nice home. Good location with beautiful views. More amenities than we needed. It was my first trip to the lake. My friends were impressed with the location and are going to bring their families back and rent it out also.
Had a wonderful time. The hill is a bit rough but worth it if you can manage it.

The View!
The property was amazing. House was clean and notes around the house were helpful. Loved all the seating that allowed my family to easily gather together and catch up. Dock was great for the pontoon. You could sit and just take in the view for hours. We had a fantastic stay.

Gem of a piece of property with plenty to do indoors and out. Exceptional amenities including fenced playground, pedal boat, kayaks, innumerable seating groupings out of doors, two firepits, a telescope, board games galore and fascinating books. Home decor conducive to lake front enjoyment. Owner quickly responsive to questions. We had a wonderful time.
This house was amazing. It was well stocked with all the amenities needed to enjoy time on the lake and on rainy days. The house was clean and the appliances were new. My boys even caught a 30 lb catfish off the end of the pier. Loved every minute we were there.
Property is located in a quiet area right on the lake. Has a ton of water toys, kayaks, paddleboards etc. and more outdoor gathering spaces than we could use. House has two decks, two upper sitting areas above the lake and a great dock/boat house excellent for gathering. Kids loved the game room complete with arcade game! Highly recommend
The property was beautiful the view of the lake was just unbelievable the house was super clean everything I expected or beyond what I expected it was a great location plenty of parking had a playground for the kids outdoor kitchen sitting area it had a dock and a deck at the lake that had kayak sits at
disposalr. I would highly ecommend this property .foanybody thaa vfor work it was just a beautiful property
