The rooms were clean. The cabin was wonderful. The lake was quiet, but we went in October after the seasonal rush.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jul 2025
House and property well appointed and was as advertised. Owner very responsive to all questions and needs. Rent the pontoon boat if you can. That made the week for us! You do need to bring your own bath and beach towels. The bedroom with King bed is a bit challenging as the bed extends the entire room leaving just narrow pathway on one side to get to closet. Overall a great place on a nice lake. Fishing was decent!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jul 2025
The atmosphere was very welcoming and lake like which was very nice. Didn't like there was cameras at front and patio doors, completely invading our privacy and it was a little strange there was family pictures everywhere. One of the bedroom pictures showed online was one that was locked and couldn't use for some reason. The room not pictured that we used had an odor like dog smell to it or maybe it was because the carpet had gotten wet day b4. The pantry carpet was wet along one side of wall and some spots farther out towards door(seen in pics). There were visible mouse traps with fresh peanut butter on them in 2 bedrooms and laundry room. Spider webs throughtout the house. We had to kill spiders constantly. The one sofa didn't recline for some reason and when i went to open the back to check if it waa unplugged a bunch of food crumbs fell out and then when my husband sat in the other that reclined there was candy underneath his seat. U could see all the food crumbs under the couches if u layed at eye level with floor. There were holes in the ceilings where vents should've been. I mean I guess we expected it to be alot cleaner considering it was someones actual lake home and not just a rental property.
