Great property but home needs updating
The property was great but entire home needs to be updated. It is also extremely dark around the home at night without any flood lights or even a front porch light.

Best Vacation!!!!
We had the best time staying here. We stayed for the Christmas holiday and didn’t miss home one bit! We could’ve kayaked for hours and it was close to everything in town. Joel was easy to connect with and promptly answered any questions we had. We couldn’t recommend this property enough. It was very dog friendly, and my disabled brother was also able to get around with ease. Thank you so much for a great holiday!!!!

Family visit
Beautiful view and enjoyed watching birds and 6foot gator. The house is a strange layout, the bathrooms are in hallway by each other, then the two bedrooms. Master bedroom light and fan did not work. Light above shower did not work. The house was hot From the sun shining in the windows all day, blinds do not roll down. We bought another fan to help with circulation. Luckily we were gone during the day. Light in refrigerator didn’t work.. Grass wasn’t mowed, We didn’t go out on the deck, as the only way on it was from the living room, which the door didn’t open, and other glass door was broke, so we decided not to chance it. Dishwasher was broke when we got there.

Cozy life getaway
This house was perfect for our trip to visit our kids. Even though it was an older home it had all the necessities! We LOVED the wall of windows on the back of the home. The view was comforting, relaxing and really just perfect! It felt like we were sleeping outside! There are blinds if you choose to shut them. We liked sleeping under the stars. The back porch is awesome, just bring your own lawn chairs. The owner did a great job prepping for our stay. All the cabinets are labeled, super helpful! The kitchen is pretty much fully stocked. There is a closet full of toiletries. There are two kayaks to borrow along with life jackets & fishing gear. We took advantage of those! So fun! Thanks!!! Also there are instructions for everything! My wife loved that! The artwork was beautiful and personal. She also enjoyed the books and memorabilia around the entryway. Loved the updated shower restroom. Spa vibes! A few things we would fix or add: A few of the light fixtures were missing bulbs or not working. The sliding glass door needs to be fixed. It’s really hard to open and close. Add coffee mugs to the kitchen or bring disposable (there are two copper mugs but I prefer glass or paper mugs) We bought and left clothes hangers since there were none. Add folding or lounging chairs to the back porch Overall a GREAT house! Would stay again and highly recommend!

A Great Stay!
The house was well provisioned and the location could not have been better. So close to everything yet a peaceful, quiet neighborhood at the same time. The kayaks were an awesome bonus perk! Paddle out into the brook, take a left, and in just a few minutes you have an awesome view of the whole river and TIAA Bank Field across the way. Would definitely stay here again.
