Property was exactly as described. Simple but well stocked with the necessities. Great little getaway for the two of us and our pup.
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2025
The small cottage has a very nice bathroom except that the stream of water from the sink faucet is very little. The kitchen water pressure was better, as was the shower. The washer and dryer are very nice. The one-room cottage has okay beds for two of them; a little saggy. The dining area is very cute with a 1950s style red and chrome table and chairs. The TV is very small and doesn't get many channels. The grass was over a foot tall in many places, but a man did come and mow on our second day, which helped a lot to walk our small dog. There is much tree debris and branches around the sides of the big yard, both front and back, and all the furniture was dirty. The kayak had very dirty water in it that we couldn't get out. The paddle boards have trim that is falling off. The lake water not usable, due to the recent floods about 3 weeks ago (city and county news bulletin out), with brown floating debris, but it was pretty to look at overall. Overall the nice big yard has great lake frontage for a pretty view; too bad we couldn't go in the lake. The yard looked quite neglected overall.

6 / 10Average·Jul 2025
The lake front yard is very large and pleasant. We saw ducks and a heron on the water each day. The palm trees and other trees provide good shade. Yard needs cleaning up; small cottage is very clean and nice, except that little water comes out of the bathroom faucet. A good place to stay on a budget, and if you have a small dog, although the yard is not fenced.
