Cozy
This place is located right at the start of town and is close to the lake and hwy to the other reservoirs and hiking/off-roading/fishing spots. It’s 3-levels with the master bedroom/bath and the second bedroom/bathroom all the bottom level. The kitchen living area is up in the second level and a small loft on the third. Located behind the gates in a very quiet neighborhood loaded with gorgeous trees. It was a great place to come back to after a long day out on the lake and exploring. They allow dogs which is GREAT, but we chose not to bring ours this time.

Comfortable
We had a nice stay. So many stairs was not expected! One of the guests had a hardtime with all baths downstairs. It would have been good to have known ahead of time. The main area was comfortable for 6 of us. If the full 10 people had shown up we would have been too crowded. Would stay again, with 6 people.

Nice home, needed a few fixes.
We enjoyed having a gated community. A few fixes, and it would be perfect.

Everything was fine. but made more sense to have the one bathroom on the main living area instead of down stairs

Good Enough
The place is decorated cute. They have the base essentials. Arriving in the dark without having a map of the property was hard as addresses are not lit, and they dont have anything to tell you where the community pool is, so it was a bit of a hunt. Otherwise, it was fine. Sheets were clean, and the location is great for reaching a lake or a national park.

Our summer stay
It was perfect with one important note would be, that during the summer one of the bedrooms is very hot as there is no a/c and the room has no windows. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay!

Great location, but give yourself some time to check-in
After a difficult, likely unique check-in experience (security door was locked and no code provided) the property met expectations. The location is great and easy access to the surrounding Shave Lake area. We had 10 people in our party (10 beds) and it was a bit cozy, but the common and dinning areas were more than sufficient for our needs.
