Fun Getaway
Let me start off by saying the two-star review seems a bit harsh. Here are my thoughts. Indeed, the pool lights go off at 9pm and you can't be loud past that time. The neighbors aren't super close, but I'm sure this property had issues with noise in the past and that probably ruined it for everyone going forward. The pool table and ping pong tables are smaller than your typical, but I thought the shuffleboard table was legit. The house was clean, no issues there. We had mild weather so I can't comment on AC. I'm knocking a star off as I think the hosts should post better-resolution pictures and remove all the close-up photos. Also, there are cameras out on the deck and pool area which is a bit lame, but I get it, you want to protect your property. I was also excited to try out the soccer field, but it's just a dirt sandlot right now so we ended up passing on that. Wiffle ball on the sandlot was a lot of fun though! Overall we had a really fun time here and there are nearby river/streams that I wish we had time to visit. We had a group of 13 and it slept us perfectly. You could easily squeeze a couple more people and the hosts were responsive to any questions we had.

Renters Beware!
The house is in a private neighborhood. Which means the lighting in the pool area goes off at 9pm because apparently it means the neighbors can not sleep LOL. There is a small lamp that stays on but its crappy and broken like a lot of things in this house. The pool table, ping pong table and shuffle board are all miniature kid sizes. The photographs are ment to be tricky. The AC has a saved preset that you are unable to change so every so often the AC turns off and the heat turns on. The fridge and freezer were both dirty with food crumbs and a nasty smell so we had to clean it before using. The living room fan did not work and we were not offered any solution. There were shoes and used socks outside on the deck. You can request camera to be turned off which we did for the pool area and the management confirmed they would however the blue light went on randomly as they turned it on to randomly check in. The only good thing about this rundown house is the pool and even the pool needs to be resurfaced as it very sharp and scraping at the bottom. Not worth the money do not stay here. Very disappointed in my first VRBO experience.

Excellent house for group with kids
From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning views and the cleanliness of the home. The house was equipped with lots of amenities for the kids to entertain themselves (mini ping-pong/pool table, shuffleboard, karaoke machine, basketball hoop, pickleball paddles and net, etc.). We spent our time outside on the deck, soaking in the breathtaking views. The hot tub was the perfect way to unwind after a long day of hiking and exploring the area. Make sure you have the instructions on how to turn it on, as this was provided after we requested for it. The location was also ideal for a secluded stay, with some nearby attractions and activities to keep us busy. We visited the Empire Mine State Historic Park, went golfing, and played in the snow by White Cloud campground. The owners were incredibly responsive and helpful, providing us with all the info we needed to make the most of our stay. We were notified that the pool cues and the TV remote were missing just as we were arriving, but Clay placed an order through Amazon and it arrived in a timely matter. The only drawbacks were that there was no coffee maker, so it was a bit of a hassle to make coffee for 10 people on two French presses. Also, there were not enough blankets for 14 people. During our stay, the temperature was about high 30’s to mid 40’s at night, so some extra blankets would have been great. Overall, I can't recommend this house enough. It was truly the perfect home away from home.

Great Place and Quiet Neighborhood!
Overall, we had a great time! The place is even nicer and more well-stocked than it appears in the photos. The hosts responded quickly to any questions we had and provided detailed instructions. We went there for a weekend getaway and had a great time.
