A cabin by the lake

We were in the area for a wedding. This little rental packed a punch for our weekend stay. There was plenty of space to spread out and we truly enjoyed the back area. Spending Sunday just relaxing at the open bar area and having a fire that evening was the highlight of my kids' stay. The area is quiet and peaceful and the host provided all the tools we needed for a great stay.

Amazing weekend get away!

Highly recommed!! The property was just as pictured, super cute and clean! It has everything you need in the kitchen! We made great use of the bonus room and fire pit. Such a wonderful extra space, well thought out and put together! Extra bonus, we were able to catch many small panfish right off the bank!

Amazing Vacation

We had a great time on our vacation in this property. It is the perfect place for 8-10 people. We spent most of our time in the beautiful bar area outside. Great view of the channel and its so peaceful. If renting a boat; like we did, the channel is a little tight but if you take your time its no problem. It is conveniently located near the grocery store and Dollar General which was great since we brought our golf cart and was able to buzz up quickly if we needed something. Looking forward to renting again soon.

Unusable boat dock

Response from VrboOwner on 20 Aug 2024
Hi Brian, we apologize that the covered boat house and lift could not accommodate your boat! The channel is wide and very calm, so it is very acceptable to tie any boat up to the property’s sea wall to park at any time.

Great little place

We utilized the outdoor amenities to the fullest. Coffee on the porch while we watched the morning fishermen drop in their boats in the state park. Afternoon bags games in the side yard. Our 18ft boat fit nicely in the boat slip. Beverages at the outdoor bar on the back of the garage. Plenty of room for parking too. The inside was clean. Had the necessities. Hosts were good with communication, but we didnt have issues come up that needed addressing during our stay. Overall a very pleasant experience and a nice part of the lake.

Sufficient lodging

As a place to sleep while we were visiting family who lives on the lake, it served our purposes sufficiently. The owners were very easy to work with and they let us check in early. The inside was decorated beautifully. The bedding, appliances, and furniture looked brand new and the beds were very comfortable. However, upon entering, there was a definite musty odor to the home, uneven bubbling flooring, and quite a bit of ant activity in the home (which we ended up treating ourselves). The water in the home also has a metallic/sulfur smell. The outdoor bar was great, but the Adirondack chairs were falling apart as well as the porch ceiling panels. Although the property is a “waterfront” property, the channel that the house is on was not able to accommodate my sister’s boat. Overall I would say the owners have done a pretty good job flipping this old cottage, but it’s not quite what we were expecting for the price.

Oops you can't have the property you paid for.

We rented a house 13 months in advance to see the 2024 eclipse. 20 minutes after i paid the second and final payment in March of 2024 I got a call from the host saying "the house wasn't suppose to be on the list for rental". He didn't tell me that 13 months earlier when i paid half the cost, but not to worry he has a bigger house a 4 bedroom 2 bath we can stay in. But then they had a tornado. Three days before we left he called to say sorry but he rented that house out to tornado victims and now we, a party of 9 people had to take a 2 bedroom 1 bath house also there was a problem with the sewer. When we got there we could not use the shower, washing machine, dishwasher, or toilet except to poop. All dishwater had to be carried out in buckets. In the middle of our stay he called to ask us to tidy up so he could show the house to another tornado victim he could rent to. He also said he would drop the pet fee if we give him a five star rating. As a family with a good sense of humor we made the best of the situation and enjoyed the solar eclipse and family time.

We are so sorry your experience had so much trouble and inconvenience! We are unsure how the bookings overlapped, but with places being booked up for the eclipse we wanted to do everything we could to not cancel on you, so that you could still have a place to stay. The fallout from the tornado created misplaced families needing long term rentals with housing shortages in the area, and the flooding after created city sewage issues that no one could predict. We did our best to resolve these issues and in the end it was a learning all around. All issues have been resolved and our sweet spot by this beautiful lake is up and running smoothly as advertised again. We always aim to please our guests, and we regret that we let you down. We have learned how to avoid these issues in the future so that more may enjoy our wonderful Indian Lake!
