Not much of a yard
Not much of a yard for dogs or kids and the walk way down to the dock needs a little bit better steps . And spiders was bad at back door I took the broom out there and cleaned porch and door way. Other than that it was good

Family Birthday
We had 5 adults. Only 4 towels were left. 2 rolls of toilet paper. We ran out. No vent fan in the bathroom . The 3rd bed was terrible. My mother in law 87 had to sleep on the couch.

Where are the lamps?
The home itself presents like a normal lake cabin. The view from the deck was beautiful and the dock was great to float off of in the tubes we brought.
Upon entry however I felt as though I was entering a teenager’s apartment. The main room was devoid of any interior design. There was but a large TV and a pit group sofa. The sofa was covered with a slip cover, I assume to give cover for a pet. The smell of cheap air freshener was all over the sofa making it difficult to actually sit on.
The bathroom had been updated and was for the most point clean except to the remaining toiletries in the shower. Honestly, the idea of a bidet in what is basically a public toilet is not something I’m interested in.
We didn’t need the second bedroom but noticed it was again fashioned be a teen. The master bedroom was again bare. The bed was a newish “ mattress in a box” type. It was thin and firm, but was ok. The biggest issue was that the bed didn’t have a full set of sheets. There was not flat sheet between the fitted sheet and the blanket. There were bed side tables on either side of the bed but there were no lamps. In fact, there isn’t a lamp in the whole house. Also, do not bring any hanging clothes because there is no where to hang them. Every closet must be an owners closet because all are locked.
The kitchen is basically in the basement. It makes it convenient to to deck and lake view .
This is my first Vrbo experience. Maybe my last.

Lovely spot on the lake
House was spotless, and my two night stay was delightful! I was really only at the house to sleep and shower, but it was a lovely and comfortable stay.

Beautiful view....
This place has a nice view but lacks inside. It wasn't the cleanest and the beds didn't even have flat sheets on them. There is only one bathroom and one mirror in the whole house. The kitchen only has a few things in it so no cooking there. Very cramped property and hard to park with a 4 door pickup. Owner was nice though.

Feels just like home
The birthday weekend stay was perfect and peaceful! Loved having our boat and family at the water with us. There is a marina very close to the house. Loved waking up to the sounds of boats on the water. Very modern home and I instantly felt at home drinking coffee on the deck looking at the water. The home gave us a new level of personal hygiene; changing lives one at a time with the bidet! Got to have one! Thank you so much for sharing your piece of heaven.

Great Location
The property was in a great location. Only thing we didn’t particularly like was how firm the beds were. For us they weren’t very comfortable but everything else with the house was amazing. Would recommend to anyone

Awesome location
Owner was easy to communicate with. We had everything that we needed. House was clean, kept up nicely and had an incredible view. They spent time and money on the deck and boat dock. All you need to do is grab your poles and your boat and you're all set. The house does have stairs to get to one of the bedrooms and the kitchen but that was my only drawback and it's only a drawback because I'm in a medical flare just coming out of the hospital but we made it work. I should have asked prior to renting. I am 1000% happy with my stay and will stay here again.
