Comfortable Lakefront Property With Views

First and foremost, if you are looking (for the most part) for some late 1980s-mid 1990s technology and decor, on a great piece of relaxing lakefront property... this is a gold mine. Honestly, being Gen X my wife, my mother-in-law (and her friend) and I enjoyed the nostalgia and watching our teenagers struggle with transitor televisions and VHS. I say that in jest. We really did have an excellent time there. The bad: Musky/damp smell on the lower floor (Damp-rid does wonders). For the most part very clean and organized, but did find a few areas that needed better attention by the cleaning crew (but easily remedied). Access to the waterfront is extremely difficult (if not impossible) for elderly requiring assistance and those that have mobility disabilities (of which we had both in our party)... we knew about this prior to renting and rented regardless because we had alternative plans to get them to the water. The neutral: Its an older house with older appliances... it requires a little TLC... but everything works very well considering its age. The listing says hottub and jacuzzi tub; its just a jacuzzi tub in the master bath, and it works great, is refreshing and fits 2. The good: It is a very relaxing property, with kind neighbors and an outstanding price. Kitchen is well stocked. Very close to local attractions. The dock has plenty of room for a pontoon boat. Contrary to other reviews, Craig is very responsive. Overall would stay again 8.25 out of 10.

Renters Beware – Mold EverywhereWe’re pretty low maintenance, but nothing prepared us for this experience.We arrived around 5 PM to find the cleaning lady still at the house, saying she was just finishing up. She kindly left one roll of toilet paper —because the house didn’t have any. As we began unpacking for our week-long stay, it became clear this place was filthy. Bugs, spiders, mouse poop everywhere. We immediately drove to the new Dollar General down the road to buy cleaning supplies just to feel comfortable letting our 11-month-old crawl around.After two hours of vacuuming and wiping everything down, the upstairs finally felt somewhat safe. The rest of the house? Not so much. The entire place had a strong, musty odor. It was so damp that towels never dried, and nearly every piece of furniture was covered in mold. The downstairs furniture was completely unusable — no one in our group could even sleep down there. I have photos that clearly show the mold.A few days in, we all started getting sore throats, runny noses — likely from the poor air quality. We reached out to the host to discuss the issues, and wow.the host became irate, combative, and even called me a liar. the soffit in the back is rotting off, and there are multiple water stains clearly just painted over. We’ve since contacted VRBO to report the property and request an inspection. I feel genuinely sorry for anyone else with a reservation here.If I had to describe the house in one word? Dilapidated.

House more than met our needs and the dock was sufficient to handle our 2 boats.

It had the occupancy we needed but the basement was very cold and damp and had a musty smell to it. Furniture is very dated and the upstairs found smelled as well. Upstairs cushions on couch were filthy. Had 2 leaky ceiling areas and light bulbs out in three location.

We have stayed in this property in the past and find it comfortable and spacious. Although not updated in the sense that other, much more expensive properties are, it is well equipped and allows plenty of room for larger families while being suitable for a couple like my husband and me, since there is a spacious master suite on the main level. It has a huge bathroom with whirlpool tub, separate shower and double sinks, as well as a walk-in closet, and quality furniture with plenty of drawer space. The kitchen is large and well stocked with up-to-date appliances, good cooking equipment, and plenty of cabinet space. A large dining table and screened porch with table and chairs allow plenty of room for either intimate dining or larger groups. There is a garage available to guests plus driveway parking. A large deck and easy access to the dock are another plus.

The house is very roomy with lots of space and good sized bedrooms. The location and beach were nice, very private area without boat traffic. Note that the beds are a bit hard and you might want a topper/foam cushion to help. We had a number of problems that the owner was not very responsive to fixing - specifically the internet wi-fi never worked - the dishwasher leaked so we put a bowl under the front edge to prevent from flooding the floor - there were a number of fixtures that needed bulbs thus is was a bit dark in the house - the dock is poorly maintained but the floater is OK for getting a boat to - not sure why but we seemed to run out of hot water too soon - we talked to the owner about a lot of these problems but we didn't see or get any of the problems taken care of during our week at the house - I don't know what is planned for the future.

This is the second time we have rented this house. It is still comfortable and we will rent it again.

Pretty much have your own side of a cove, not bad of a walk to the dock. House is roomy, I Would definitely stay there again

As listed. Its an older house with older things, but at half the cost of houses with upgraded ammenities, its a perfect family friendly place to relax and enjoy all the lake has to offer. Ver nice grill with full garage available.for parking or storage. Lovely dock with beach and swimming area protected by cove. Great living room with lots of seating and a big family table for meals together. Booking again for next year already!

Very good location. Steep walk to the lake which me knew when we booked it. Very mothball smelling. Had to wash even clean clothes once I got home to get that smell out. House was larger than we thought. Lots of room.
