family summer trip
This was a trip of 9, all different age groups- seniors to children. The 5 girls 9-16 had a blast swimming and fishing. They loved the dive platform. The swim -fish- boat covered platform was awesome. The house is in a quiet cove and is equipped with everything you would need- paper products to kitchen necessities. The wifi and phone service was a bit sketchy. We had neither for 2 days. The owner was responsive to getting it fixed and was quick to replace a broken toilet seat upon arrival. The bunkbeds were not slept in as not enough space between for 9-13 year olds. The upstairs bedroom balconies would have been nice if there were chairs or tables on them as there was no furniture we could only stand on them. The kitchen has an apartment size dishwasher so it was small for 9. The bottom deck was nice and partially covered, but ants galore. Ants were a problem all around the outside of the house. Spraying around house and decks would have helped immensely. The steps with no handrails from road to house to lake was challenging for the seniors with arthritic knees. All in all it was a good trip at a nice house in a good location. It would have been great if attention to smaller details- cobwebs in laundry room, ants almost make outside of house on deck unusable, furniture on upstairs deck and handrails were addressed. We know this property is new to VRBO so these are just constructive observations. We are happy we rented this house and memories made.
