There were some good things about this property and some not so great things. I stayed a few days here just me and my dog before my husband joined us. I was under the impression there was a balcony, but it was a ground level patio so good thing I brought my tie-out for the dog. Sadly, the view was of the parking lot and the hood of my vehicle. If I parked a few spots over and strained my neck, I could see the water through a break in the trees. Maybe this isn't a big deal, but I was hoping for a water view.
The walk to get to the lake is down a pretty steep slope and getting back up is a nice workout. This I thought was a plus, but it's not for everyone. The beach area is rocky, but not too bad. There were docks with boats, but I didn't see a designated swim area and never saw anyone in the water which was also disappointing, but my dog liked it.
There is a nice pool with zero entry. But, the area wasn't well kept up and some of the chairs were broken. The pool was also a little dirty, but there were no pool nets to clean out the bugs and leaves.
The condo itself has a great floor plan and it felt roomy and airy. I really liked the layout. The kitchen was pretty basic, but had what I needed for a short stay. The master bed was comfortable and very quiet. I enjoyed the big tub, but the shower was a little tricky getting the water set to the right temp.
The tv, although remotes were labeled and there were instructions in the binder, I could never get to connect to my apps or change the input. I wasn't really there to watch tv anyway.
I enjoyed my stay here. I loved the location and close proximity to marinas, restaurants and I even drove into Branson one day. This is a great area and close to SDC. If you have kids, this would be a great condo with laundry, 2 bathrooms, and the second bedroom is a nice bunkroom. This was also one of the easiest entry locks. We didn't have any issue with the code working and that is rare. It was also nice to park right in front of your unit and unload via the patio doors.
