First off, the communication with the host was excellent. Second, I think the property was better than I expected. The view was excellent, the deck was bigger than I thought. The cabin was spacious. The bunkhouse was a nice expansion option as we had a large group. We had fun playing pool and ping pong and the kitchen was very useable. There was a TV, but pretty much nocody watched it because everybody was just enjoying each other's company and the property was very condusive to that. The bathrooms were nice and clean and well stocked. The beach and water was certainly interesting--in a good way. You have a VERY large amount of space that is about thigh deep water (maybe like 200 yards) so I would imagine getting a boat in there would be difficult unless it has a shallow draft. But was great for floating and relaxing. All sand. So, perfect for throwing a ball around. It would be especially good for younger children not only because of the shallow water, but also the lack of boats in the immediate area. We used the kayaks, which were perfect for the water. At any rate, we were very happy with the cabin.
