    We had a great time here! The location was great. It was so peaceful and access to the pond was perfect (which is why we chose this home). My son and husband fished a lot, we kayaked daily and the water is SO clean! We were able to find everything we needed close by- restaurants, shopping, entertainment for the kids. Loved having the washer and dryer right in the hall for small daily loads of towels, etc. the home was charming and nicely updated. There were a few cons, as there will be with any rental… There are a lot of windows, and only the bedrooms have shades, which made us uncomfortable walking around the house at night in the dark, in the middle of the woods. The deck furniture was all stacked up and covered in pine needles and debris, making it difficult to use them without pulling out heavy metal furniture and cleaning it first. We did not see the firepit that was supposed to be under the deck. The directions to get to the property could be slightly clearer, letting guests know that there are private property signs that say do not enter made us nervous upon arrival. We weren’t sure if we were going down the right path at first. The pans in the kitchen definitely need to be replaced, they have seen far better days. Lastly, the cleaning could have been done better. During our stay, we saw an old bandaid on the floor, a dog bone under furniture, pistachio shells. That made it feel unclean. All that said, these issues weren’t deal breakers. We would stay here again!

    A small but quite comfortable tucked away house, clean and neat with good AC. Very private via a bit of a wicked road. Keep in mind your vehicle will need 7 of ground clearance. We enjoyed overlooking the pond perfect for a canoe or kayak not so great for swimming but that’s OK. Well appointed Kitchen. Nice porch and deck. our only recommendation for the owner would be to provide a few games simple stuff like backgammon, board games etc. Overall an enjoyable stay.

    I would prefer to keep this place to ourselves so it's always available. Kayaking and swimming out the back door, super quiet private property minutes from beach and food, and bike path close by. Coffee on the deck in the morning, beverage of choice in the sunroom at night.
