Fully equipped kitchen, super clean home, cozy atmosphere. Great lighting, air conditioning, the fireplace in the living room was wonderful. We enjoyed the outdoors as well - the view was relaxing. We did have an issue getting the outdoor hot tub to work properly though, I think it may need to be serviced. However, they were very quick to answer my questions and offered to send out a tech, but we were leaving the next morning so we didn't need the help. Otherwise, everything was great.

We had a great stay at this beautiful lakefront home. The property is fantastic, with a great kitchen, cozy fireplace, and big windows that offer an amazing view of the lake. We especially enjoyed the basement with the pool table, large TV, and jetted tub. It was perfect for relaxing. The outdoor space was just as great, with an amazing fire pit, plus we loved fishing and taking one of the boats out. The only things we would have changed were adding a TV on the main level and giving the hot tub a more thorough cleaning. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would definitely love to come back!

Host was responsive, but initially wifi did not work. Previous dog poop left underneath snow, and general other food items were left in the couch cushions. We never ate pretzels but there were constantly pretzels falling from the couch. Sheets also did not appear to have been changed, as various other hair colors were present on the sheets. Other than that, really nice view, call quiet area, and
6 / 10Average·Nov 2023
Overall the property was nice. However, there are 4 outdoor cameras that watch your coming and going. You can view your videos on the security portal, but cannot erase. Someone else may view them as well. I feel it’s invasion of privacy. Staying in November was a challenge in the early evening as the property does not have any lights near the entrance doors or stairs. We had to use flashlights in order to navigate the path and stairs. I found this to be hazardous for us. Lastly, I believe they use a water softener and my wife I both experienced burning of our eyes after a shower.
