Perfect family getaway for all ages

Super clean property, abundant provisions including games and kid toys. Plenty of space to spread out, updated appliances. We had everything we needed for our group of 12 and the property was just what we had hoped for. No lake view, if you’re looking for that. But it was exactly what we needed for a perfect family weekend getaway!

Great stay, loved it!!

The house was incredibly gorgeous, tons of room! A shirt walk to the lake but the path was a little too steep to bring down the kayaks. There were great kayaking spots and swimming locations nearby! If you can survive the steel road down, it is well worth the stay.

The interior of the house was nice. There’s plenty of beds, seating, and things to do around the house (games, kids toys, etc).House has a Keurig, not a coffee pot so bring K-cups if you want coffee!The drive in is also a bit sketchy, especially at night. Very steep single-lane gravel hill leading to the house, so be sure to bring the appropriate vehicle!

Great Place for Large Family!

We had 11 adults and two babies, and this place was well equipped for all. It met the needs of different bedtimes and awake times for the little ones very well. Would easily sleep more than the 12 advertised between the trundle beds and all the extras spaces. The 3 levels was perfect for us. Love the balconies too.

Great Family Weekend Getaway!

Loved everything about this place! We had a great weekend. It was close to Hurricane Marina and we rented a boat for a day. Had a great time relaxing on the porch around the fire pit. *Driveway is steep with loose rock and we had a hard time getting out the first day. But there was parking at the top by the road so no big deal.

Cozy retreat getaway

We came on a Bible study retreat and the property was perfect. There was plenty of seating for everyone both indoor and out. The place is so cozy and very comfortably fit all 9 of us. The outdoor deck area is amazing! We had no issue finding the place. The kitchen it a little small but there’s one upstairs and downstairs so that helped! And very cute decor. Highly recommend!

Awesome Lake House!

I absolutely loved this lake house. It was beautiful and super clean. It is easy to get to and parking for multiple vehicles. The layout of the house is great- plenty of room to spread out. The beds are super comfortable. The outdoor space is incredible! We loved hanging out on the covered porch. There are neighbors to one side but not super close and with the trees it feels private. The property manager was very easy to work with. They even called me to double check that I had received all information and let me know about an event going on nearby. This cabin is probably one of the best I have stayed in- you will not be disappointed.

Underwhelmed

Overall the property was fine. The kitchen was a disaster upon check-in. There were drips and stains everywhere so we had to clean that first thing. There is a drawer in the kitchen that is broken but still has utensils that were needed so we had to work around that. There were stains on the carpet in multiple spots and the bedding didn't seem to have been cleaned recently. Most of the doors dont latch, so that was a safety concern for kiddos. Its a shame, because it could be a great property.

Birthday Weekend

Overall the lake house was awesome! There were a few things not up to par. We were cooking dinner & noticed a smell coming from one of the utensil holders on the counter. There was a pile of moldy macaroni & cheese inside of the container. Then while looking through the drawers to find a different set of utensils, there were mouse droppings in almost every drawer to the left of the oven. We cleaned out the utensil holder and washed all of the things that were in it. I took some photos of you would like for me to send them to you.

The road and driveway to this house was bad. We literally had to back up as far as we could up on side of the driveway to get enough speed to make it up the driveway to get out without sprawling gravel all over the place. The house needs some major updating and the furniture needs to be replaced. You sank down into each couch or chair in the living areas. I know you cannot control the outside furniture to some degree, but it obviously has not been cleaned for a LONG time. Again, the cushions were very thin and dirty. We had company come to visit, and was embarrassed of our rental. The layout of the house was excellent, just needs some major TLC. When taking showers in the house, there was water coming down the wall in the kitchenette in the basement. I would suggest removing the carpet and put flooring in that can be cleaned a lot easier!! The carpet definintely needed replaced. I will say when we arrived, the Keurig was not working, and within 1 hour of reporting it, we had a new one set up and verified that it was working. Excellent customer service.

Great hideaway for ladies weekend getaway. Would be ideal for two families with kids. Kitchen nicely stocked. Spent a lot of time gathered in living room and on deck. Great for group socializing. Very clean and nicely furnished. Power went out due to transformer outage up the street. Maintenance man was most helpful.
