Great Stay!

Awesome house. Everything worked and was spotless. Hosts communicative and responsive. Lots of room, great views of the lake, including awesome sunrises and moon rises. There are definitely a lot of steps to get to the water, but manageable. Grateful to be able to have our dogs with us as well! Fantastic stay altogether.

Hot tub didnt work as advertised

My fiancee and I got the house for my birthday for the only fact that it had a jacuzzi tub. We even rented the place 2 extra days before arriving because we thought everything was going to work. Well 1st night there we realize the tub doesn't work... we tell the property manager... they did send out an electrician, he took 1 look and said motor is bad. They need a plumber and someone to replace it.. It wasn't replaced and they only gave us $100 back. So we spent in total 1600 for 6 days and no jacuzzi, no grill, etc.
