This house was as large and beautiful, with a comfortable room and bed for everyone in our family. The lake access was amazing, and having all of the life jackets there was great. The kitchen was well stocked; there were lots of sheets and numerous bath towels. We shopped at the Sunfest Mart and were very happy with the options and prices.
I would have given five stars except for four things:
- We planned to grill our first night there, but couldn’t get the grill to work. Despite my calling and texting both the on-site caretaker and the owner, we got no reply until the next day, when we learned the gas canister was empty.
- The basement sliding glass door would not lock, even after my handyman brother fiddled with it. With all of the children staying in the basement room, we had to wedge a piece of furniture in the door to lock it.
- The number of bath towels was huge; however, there were only about 8 beach towels for a house that sleeps 32. With a house right on the water, I expected more beach towels.
- The Fireside Getaway suite bed was very comfortable, but so tall! There was one stool to access the bed from one side, but it really needed a second stool. I also would have liked a fireplace screen that gave more privacy so that you couldn’t see right into the living room. Appreciate the box fan for noise, though!
Overall, great stay, but could use a few tweaks.
