Really enjoyed the seclusion of this house - It's in a growing neighborhood but you wouldn't notice! The dock and patio are awesome. This house allows for everyone to have enough space. This was our home base for our elopement, as approved by owner, and we had a fantastic time!

The host was very communicative and responsive. The house was very secluded, surrounded by nature, and although very big- it was cozy. The house allow everyone in the family to find something to do- fishing on the dock, reading or playing games on the terrace, watching TV in the dock house, or enjoying a fire by the fire pit- there is something for everyone. The open kitchen allows for everyone to gather and assist to then share meals on the massive dining room table. A true gem!

The house is pretty and the dock was a nice plus, some of my group fished and was able to canoe. There really isn’t a canoe launch so you have to be able to step off the dock into the canoe. The listing shows a black stone griddle and a grill, there is no black stone and the grill was not in working order, the gas regulator was clogged and the grates on the grill were filthy and rusty, we had planned our meals mostly on those two items so we went and bought grill brush and cleaned it to use and unclogged the regulator. There is no bed swing as shown and the outside furniture is not what you see in photos. Garage is not functional for cars to park. The house is in need of a deep cleaning,food is stuck on the cookware and also silverware and some of the dishes. Microwave was covered in splattered food. Refrigerator door shelves are broke. The cup that holds detergent in dishwasher is broken. Water is not hot and water pressure is very low making showers hard. We had a reservation for 9 and only had 1 towel and washcloth per person so we were washing constantly to have clean ones for next shower. Fireplace is not working properly, by looking at the top of the chimney with all the moss and debris it needs a good cleaning to not be dangerous. Pitch black dark in front of house so if you come in at night you can’t see to work the lockbox without a flashlight. The house has the potential of being a very nice rental, I tried to contact the owner but zero response.
