First time renting from Vrbo and this lake house far exceeded expectations! Our entire family of 16 ranging from ages 4-65 enjoyed their stay and had plenty of room inside or out. The lake house is beautifully remodeled, decorated and well taken care of. Host was quick to respond when question arose too! The first bedroom sleeps the most with a triple decker twin bunk bed and full bunk bed with full trundle underneath - this room had small amount of toys and books. I would bring board games with next time if there was rain in the forecast. The 2nd and 3rd bedroom had plenty of closet space and hampers/baskets if needed which made you feel at home. Each room has a tv too. Having the mud room with washer and dryer was so convenient! They even have a cute closet with a bench and doggie supplies(nice touch!) if you did sign up to bring them. There is only 1 bathroom but decent sized and everything worked as it should - even had shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The kitchen where we do a lot of cooking as a family was perfect! There were plenty of pots, pans, mixing bowls and dishes. I forgot to bring my electric griddle but they had a large rectangle griddle pan that worked slick on nice gas stove. The water from the kitchen was decent - sometimes can be iffy when going up north. The kitchen table did not fit us all at once but there is seating at kitchen counter, outside gazebo(which was not on original photos-nice addition) and on porch. Those that needed a break from outside could relax in living room and watch direct tv. Had no issues with wifi internet even with multiple kids on iPads and adults on phones. Now the best part and main reason we choose this rental was it being located on a lake! Crooked Lake is a smaller lake and was very quite during our 4 day weekday stay. A few pontoons cruised slowly by and saw couple boats fishing and tubing which did not effect our time in the water. Swimming in lake and playing with water toys that were at the property was the kids #1 favorite part of vacation! I brought multiple floaties and did not need. The raft, large floating mat, inner tubes and paddle board kept kids occupied for hours while the adults were able to relax on a blanket on the grass or chair on the patio with a clear view of the kids. The guys enjoyed grilling and playing cornhole during day. Nighttime consisted of bonfire which was nicely placed near patio, they had skewers for s’mores and even had wood bundles on-site to purchase!
