Beautiful Lakefront Home
Our group of friends gets together each year for a getaway. We chose this place this year and were very happy that we did. The house was perfect. The host was very responsive and we had a great time relaxing by the lake. decision

3rd year visiting this property - hope to return again!
The property is well maintained, host is great, and location is perfect for our family. The stairs are challenging for someone with mobility issues but every lake house we have rented has had stairs. This one offers exactly what we need and Majorie has always been super wonderful to work with. We don't spend as much time on the water as most guests probably do so had to repeatedly reset the thermostat to keep house cool (71-72), but we understand the need to keep utility costs down.

Nice Vacation Home - Minus the steps
Our family had a great time fishing and swimming. A great area. The only minus is the stairs that literally go straight up to the bedrooms.

Awesome Lake House
Marjorie your house was just what we were looking for. Any closer to the water and we would have been in it. The covered porch was our favorite coffee spot…one morning a storm came through and we loved watching it go across the lake from the porch. We would recommend this house to anyone that loves the lake. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much for sharing your piece of paradise with us! God bless!

Although the weather didn’t cooperate it was a nice relaxing long weekend kids still played in water! Only one suggestion I would give better relaxing furniture in living room instead of futons as that’s where we tend to spend a lot of time! Owner was always quick to respond to emails thanks for sharing your piece of paradise with my family!

Used for Lodging
Upon our arrival, the inside of the home looked clean and welcoming. Once inside we noticed a layer of dust (not pollen) on the bedroom nightstands and across the top of the kitchen stove. There were cigarette butts left in the ashtray near the back porch entry door and an uncapped cleaning spray left on the dresser in one of the bedrooms. On the 6th day of our stay smelly damp rags were discovered left inside the washing machine. The top driveway was covered with at least a 3 foot high pile of leaves that my husband initially raked with his feet so we could park in the driveway without the car catching the leaves on fire. Afterwards we found a rake and cleared the driveway ourselves. Discovering there was no dishwasher was a huge let down. My mistake for not seeing this before renting. Relying on guests to thoroughly clean their own dirty dishes is a huge responsibility on the vacationing guests. The first mug we pulled from the cupboard was disgustingly dirty. We headed to the nearest Dollar General and bought a service for four dish set and silverware so we are guaranteed to have clean dishes during our stay. The great room furniture consists of two futons, equivalent to dorm room comfort, and a wicker chair. Beds upstairs are comfortable. Showers have nice water flow and hot water. Both bathrooms are updated and were clean. We used the rental for lodging only so we are unable to comment on fishing, swimming or boating activities. The home is relaxing and quiet. It would be a great place for large gatherings.

Beautiful Place
House is beautiful. We had a good time. Kayaking was a first for me. Had plenty of water toys. Fishing was just ok. Didn't catch much as expected. But I did catch my PB huge bream. Anyhoot, well stocked and very nice seating area outside. Ok now my complaint, ate dinner first night at kitchen table. I noticed dog and what seemed like black human hair all over table. Now I remember why I dont like staying at places that allow dogs. I just dont understand how that was missed in the cleaning. Not fun picking hair out your food. 🤮(We ate the rest of our meals at the counter. )Dog hair was upstairs on the pillows and bed frames. And through out house. I found a dog toy behind the dresser when plugging up my phone. I always pack my own sheets and pillows and blankets . I'm especially glad I did on this trip. Couches smelled like dog and hair on them too. People dont follow the rules and you pay all that money for cleaning fee for it not to be cleaned right. The next renter has to deal with it. It's not fair. I suggest get a better cleaning person. Dead bugs on bathroom sinks. The washing machine smelled very musty . I had to run hot water and bleach through it before I could wash a load of clothes it was that bad. Food was left in frig., but that's nothing surprising. I would have rated better if it wasnt for the dog hair. 🤷‍♀️
