What an amazing place! The house was perfectly situated right on the lake with stunning views — it couldn’t be more idyllic. Everything was clean and well-kept, and the kids absolutely loved the rowboat and the fire pit where we made s’mores. The perfect getaway for a peaceful weekend away from everyday life. Highly recommended for families!

Great trip! Beautiful cabin. Flies and lady bugs in the cabin were pretty bad. Loved the setup and views. Very peaceful.

When we saw this bungalow on Vrbo, we felt certain it would provide a truly memorable experience. The location is secluded and quiet; the scenery is very nice. While we found many aspects of the cabin attractive, space was tight and storage a problem. There is not one closet, which was disappointing to say the least, and the downstairs bureau was not in the bedroom but in the hall, which was inconvenient. The space devoted to the living room is very tight and the television mounted over the mantle made viewing from the couch uncomfortable. The glass insert in the floor was ultimately uninteresting and the space could have been better used for a coffee table. The kitchen space was also limited. Some basic kitchen elements you would expect to find like a rack to use to dry washed dishes (there was no dishwasher) were missing. The outside grill, which we had intended to use, was filthy and the lamp on the table outside on the deck was broken. During our last night there, the water softener was triggered (loudly right next to the bedroom) and we were forced to call the property manager who, to his credit, answered the phone immediately at 3 am. Renters should know in advance that this might happen. Bottom line, this could be a very nice place but many of the details that are so important in creating a truly wonderful experience were missing.
