    The whole place was perfect - location, bedrooms, etc. but it was not as clean as it should be. We would definitely stay there again if this one thing were improved.

The beach area is a wonderful spot for any age. The house is fully equipped with everything that you would need. We were sad to leave but we know we will be back! Four Seasons was wonderful to work with. They always go out of their way!

    Our stay was great for the most part. The location was close to town, the sandy beach and dock were great for swimming and fishing for our kids. The house overall had most that you needed. A couple of things to note. There was no outdoor furniture out on the upper porch off of the master bedroom. That would have been nice to have so you could sit outside and use/enjoy it. The fire pit had some nice Adirondack chairs but there was one very broken chair that was a hazard that should have been removed. There were also quite a few broken canoe paddles left to be used as well as dishes still down by the fire pit when we arrived. I think if there was more attention to detail and doing walkthroughs of the property by the manager to see if anything is broken or needs to be tossed or replaced that would have been more welcoming.
