I had a wonderful time staying at the lake house with my family! Beautiful property and Steven and Jenny were amazing hosts, very responsive and caring. Really hope we can stay here again soon!
The property was absolutely beautiful with lots of space for all of us. We loved using the beach area and had fun with the kayaks as well. The downstairs area was perfect for watching football, which we all love, so that was a nice area for us. Steven and Jenny were extremely helpful and attentive.
The property itself is amazing and very well equipped — it truly had everything we needed for our stay. The host was friendly, responsive, and clearly tried to help when issues came up.That said, there were a few challenges. Upon arrival, there was an unpleasant odor in the home. The host did have plug-ins delivered, which helped somewhat, but the smell never fully resolved.We were also disappointed that the snow was not cleared prior to our arrival. After a long drive and the exhaustion of travel preparations, having to shovel immediately was frustrating. It snowed again the night before our departure, and once again the grounds were not treated. We had to shovel and salt ourselves, which is not our idea of a relaxing vacation. Unfortunately, several of us slipped and fell while trying to enjoy the property due to snow and ice.One additional suggestion would be to add a TV in the bunk bed room, especially for situations like ours where weather caused us to be snowed in.Overall, the home has a lot of potential and is beautiful, but improved snow removal and addressing the odor issue would greatly enhance the guest experience.
