Good house but listing missing info
There are multiple beds listed in description that are not in the house. It has 13 separate beds listed on the VRBO description and there are only 7 at the house. Rental details said trash bags were provided, they were not. Only had keurig coffee maker, no regular coffee maker on site, which was not listed. Lots of stairs to the dock which were also not listed or shown. On our last day we found the outdoor furniture cushions hidden in a closet, would have been nice to know where those were when we arrived. Refrigerator was not cooling when we arrived, took 2 days for someone to come out and look at it and add coolant so we had to use coolers with ice for some of our fridge stuff. Overall the house was fine, the location was good and it was clean, just multiple things not being what was expected was frustrating.

A fabulous place
The house is beautiful, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The lake is spectacular. Our family of 11 had a great time here and loved the accommodations. We would love to stay here again. Had some trouble getting in when we arrived, but the host responded quickly and resolved the problem. Highly recommend!

Happy 80th dad!
We took our whole family to spend a few days celebrating our dad’s 80th birthday this week. We stayed Sunday - Thursday in June. The kitchen was very well stocked for cooking, etc! Lake traffic was minimal and weather was fabulous. We enjoyed every morning and evening on the back porch. The view is amazing and the sun never hits the porch so it was comfortable all day. The rooms are spacious and the game/movie room was so much fun. We ended each night playing ping pong and table top shuffle board!!! We are looking at dates for a return trip!

Awesome Getaway
This home is simply gorgeous. We had an awesome time and created some wonderful memories with my guests to celebrate a 76th birthday. There were 6 of us instead of 7 and we each had our own space which turned out great. Everyone was comfortable. The upstairs balcony allowed us to witness the beauty and the serenity of the lake. Other amenities this home offered, include a TV room with DVD player, recreation room with ping pong table and other games, a grill, TVs in each room with Netflix, etc. Pictures do not show you the true beauty of this home. You must be there to experience the special moments that the surroundings of this home bring. Our host was patient, cooperative and prompt with answers to my questions. He was very easy to work with. We enjoyed ourselves tremendously and it was truly a wonderful experience. Thanks again!
