The property was beautiful inside and the outside area was very nice. We would have preferred an actual bed on the main floor rather than the “porch swing” but all of the casual spaces to sit and talk with family members and friends made up for that.We would still rebook this property. We did enjoy our stay!!

We're so glad you and your group enjoyed your stay! Unfortunately our area is in a drought right now, so water levels in the cove behind the house are lower than normal. Thankfully we have a great little beach and boat launch in the neighborhood as well, for those who need it. Best wishes, and we hope to see you again soon!

Our church group from South Florida enjoyed our stay here. We originally saw the listing mentioned a hot tub in the description and only after booking did we contact the owner who said there was no hot tub. That would have made the stay go from good to excellent. The rooms were pretty nice. The laundry room was dirty and the trash removal was a bit confusing. We did have ants in the kitchen sink area during our stay but it wasn't too bad and the owner did offer to come spray but I found some roach spray and used that. The kitchen was not very well stocked (no salt and pepper, very few dishes (not enough for our group of 13), not many pots, etc...) and was badly in need of a renovation. Overall, it was a nice stay. The s'mores supplies were a sweet touch.

Thank you for staying with us! We are glad your church group enjoyed the stay overall and appreciated the rooms and the s'mores supplies. We would like to clarify a few points for future guests.
Regarding the hot tub, we have never advertised as having a hot tub in our listing, photos, amenities, or marketing materials (though we agree, it would be nice to have - maybe someday in the future!). We strive to live up to our guests expectations, but since this isn't an amenity we offer, we would have allowed you to cancel the reservation without penalty.
The entire property (including the laundry room) is cleaned and inspected after every guest departure. Without specific details or photos it is difficult for us to investigate or address issues here.
The ants were a surprise for sure! Dandelion Lane has a monthly pest control service, and while we had never dealt with ants in the past, our home is located in a wooded setting, and occasionally insects find their way inside despite our preventative measures. We had an additional visit from our pest services after your visit in order to prevent future uninvited insects.
Because we host groups, our kitchen is a priority! It is always stocked with salt, pepper, and a full spice rack. In our three years hosting, we have never received guest concerns about the quantity of dishes or cookware. The kitchen is equipped with multiple sets of dishes, glassware, serving pieces, pots, pans, baking sheets, and additional cooking equipment, including an electric griddle and Belgian waffle iron. Finally, we recognize that design preferences are somewhat subjective. The kitchen is clean, well maintained, equipped with modern appliances, and presented exactly as shown in our listing photos.
We always appreciate feedback - thanks so much! We work hard to maintain the highest standards of excellence and remain committed to providing an accurately represented, clean, and comfortable experience for all our guests.
