Beautiful Views
I stayed a few nights because I was working close by. Always better to get a house than a hotel. This place was beautiful. I could stare out at the lake for hours. The cabin was very cozy. I will be back here.

Great view but that’s all!
Celeste was who I was to contact when there was a problem. I texted her the morning after we arrived because I was up until 11:00 PM drying and folding laundry that was left in the dryer, it was over filled with towels and bed linens. The lint trap was full and could have started a fire. There were not enough towels for 4 adults and 1child because the dryer was not working properly. She told me a technician was going to look at it, but no one came while we were there. The garage can in the outside utility room smelled so terribly bad, she said she would come by and clean it which never happened. The tub with the jets was dirty and had hair in it, we had to clean it before it could be used. The dishwasher was not properly installed, the refrigerator did not have water lines hooked up to make ice or dispense water. The beds mattress and pillows had stains, were old and musky smelling. There was dust and dirt on door facings, window sills, behind and under tables, dressers and TV’s. I had to wash all the pots, pans and cooking utensils before I could use them. The view was the only thing that was nice. Don’t come with the expectation of fishing with out a boat or hiring a guide as most of the property is private or very hard to get to, or a distance away from the unit. I owned and operated a cleaning service for years and this would never passed my inspection. I’m not sure if anyone checks on the cleaning service but maybe they should. Not worth the money we paid!

Wonderful location!
This property worked very well for my family. The location is great, the unit was cleaned thoroughly and was quite comfortable. There was a mix up at check-in, but the site manager has now corrected everything. We would return to this unit.

Very nice property!
Property was beautiful, great view of the lake. Lake access/swimming access is kind of difficult to find around this lake. Additionally, not many restaurants around. Property itself was nice though.

Horrible
The place was quiet and had a nice view. What I did not expect my $532.44 to get me was the things I have listed below. My expectation was to have a nice relaxing weekend for my wife's birthday. We actually ended up leaving on Sat evening. I feel as if I should demand a refund due to the uncomfortable situation provided. I realize you may live out of the area and could possibly not even be aware of the condition of the unit. I hope these things could be corrected so that the next renters could have a more comfortable and enjoyable time at this rental. We experienced the following that I feel was unacceptable. 1. Hand Rail on Stairs was loose and pulled away from the wall (Health and Safety violation) 2. Sky Light cover in shower was cracked and broken 3. Toilet seat was damaged 4. Towels were old and had bleach stains on them!!!! 5. While the view was nice, it was hard to enjoy due to neither balcony being swept and had lots of debris/spider webs 6. Outside furniture needed to cleaned in order to enjoy an meal outside 7. Standing Water in the flower pot ( Mosquito farm basically) added to not being able to enjoy the balcony 8. Dirty dishes in the cabinets when pulled out and had to be washed before using them. 9. 1/2 of a broiler pan that was in the oven and dirty. 10. Spiders and insect inside unit Needless to say, it was a very dissapointing weekend!!!

good and bad
Absolutely beautiful view and solitude, unit was unlocked and heat not on when we arrived. gas log fireplace was wonderful, gas fire table on deck was great and we had the view,peace and quiet we had hoped for, Comfortable kitchen, dining and living rooms comfortable beds and clean bathrooms. Terrible weather (cold and black ice ) owner was nice enough to extend our stay one night at no charge because the drive was to icy to leave at check-out. Unfortunately the family that had rented it showed up and there was confusion with the rental company as to cancellation.
