That view of the lake was gorgeous, especially at sunrise! I recommended it to a few folks in the area and they're planning on using it for their visitors.

This was an okay experience! We wanted a place where we could bring our pup and stay with family for a wedding in the area. The lake was a bonus for our dog as he loves the water. The good parts of this location: great size family room, lots of water boats to enjoy the lake, big primary bathroom, and the room by room AC units blast really cold. But there were a few things that stood out. Firstly, the surrounding area is pretty tough. Most of the houses have trash in the yards and it’s not the best drive in. One big concern with neighbors is that they had two pit bull mixes free roaming that chased my dog down more than once. It made me anxious to take him out knowing I didn’t know how those dogs would react to him. They also chased our car in and out on the drive which was nerve wracking, as we didn’t want to hit them. The house was pretty clean minus a few things — we smelled remnants of pee on one of the couches, and my mother in law found dog pee dried up in the bathroom. We understand this is a pet friendly location and it comes with its quirks, but pee is a lot different than some pet hair. The last thing is that it wasn’t clear in the listing that the lake area was shared, which wasn’t a huge deal, but changed the level of privacy. I don’t think this will be our first choice to stay in next time, but it’s a decent deal do the price and amount of people it sleeps!
