Really nice, new property a short walk from a lake. Really enjoyed playing in the yard. The property is either really new or really well maintained. Beds are a bit high for young kids, and otherwise everything was perfect for a family of 4

This was such a cute property and we LOVED the deck! We were hoping for a little easier access to the cove, but we understood it wasn’t managed by the property manager, so no sweat! We would definitely come back!

It was great. The property is nice and you have a view of the water from the porch. The common area is huge and gated great if you have a dog or kids to go play in. The walk to the lake on the path is rough because it’s not maintained well by the army core of engineers. You’ll want to wear pants and athletic shoes do to the rocks.

The property itself is very nice. Everything is new. Loved the pet friendly and the fenced area for our dogs. Overall, we enjoyed the peace & quiet. It was worth the money we spent. On the flip side, there are a couple of things the owner needs to address. The "access" to the lake is not a safe path. I don't recommend anyone take this path, it is dangerous. There are no smoke or carbon monoxide detectors. There was a septic tank leaking gray water, which drained directly into the path we had to take to get to the fenced dog area. Just a couple of detractions to an otherwise lovely property.

Our stay was great!! We did arrive later in the night so that made it a little difficult to locate the place. Highly recommend arriving when sun is still out for visibility. Place itself was super cute and modern, there is a lot of spiders, but it is a lake house so it's understandable. Communication with host was 10/10 responded immediately. Thank you once again
