Would Book Again

"This was an amazing stay. The home and the location were just lovely. The staff was EXTREMELY professional and responsive. We had an issue with a lake dock that a storm had damaged 2 days before we checked in. We called the day we checked in and it was repaired by the next morning, enabling us to maintain our boating plans. I would HIGHLY recommend this property to others and we plan to visit again. Thank you for listing it!"

"The inside of the house was beautiful. It could have used a few more kitchen items (more plates and bowls) for 6 people. The outside furniture could have been cleaned so that we could have sat outside and the lawn was not cut. Otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would rent again."

- Anonymous Guest

Host Response:

"Thank you for your feedback! We're so glad to hear you thoroughly enjoyed your stay and loved the home.

"The house was in a great neighborhood with a beautiful lake view!We arrived late at night (flight delayed) an our code didn't work. We called the 24 hr number provided and within ten minutes had a new code that worked. We fully enjoyed our stay and the response to our one issue (door code) shows how responsive they are to any issues.Would highly recommend staying at this house."
