Haleywood - Lakefront , Private 12 Acre Estate w/2 Cabins, Game Room,Pool!!!

Do NOT book this property!!! It is terrible!!! I had read the reviews after I booked and was concerned. I contacted Bear Camp Cabin Rentals because they manage this property, I emailed them and expressed my concerns about the pool and internet services. They responded to my email and even sent a picture of the pool that showed the pool was clean and in working order. What a LIE!!!! I had to send pictures via email that showed the pool was green and had algae in it. We couldn’t use it throughout our stay. The pool company came the day we were checking out… a little late for that. All of the lounge chairs by the pool were ripped so those couldn’t be used either. Then there’s puddles that are forming around the pool that appear to look like sinkholes full of water. It’s terrible!!! The outside door handle by the kitchen was broken. This home has not been properly kept up Now for the garbage… If you have more garbage then the small outside garbage bin then you have to take it Bear Camp Cabin Rentals office and dispose of it. Who wants to drive with garbage in their car? What if someone doesn’t have a truck? Now for the “walk” to the dock… If you are not in tip top shape and I mean like if you aren’t running 5k’s then you will struggle walking to and from the lake. This walk to the lake/dock is STEEP and certainly not for the elderly or small children. The pictures are very deceptive. I will NEVER book this place or with this management company ever again! Shame on them all!!!!

Overall a good property and place to stay. Had a little issue with door codes, but the owners worked with us amazingly to get access to everything. Air vents a parts of the ceiling could use a deeper cleaning, but over all we enjoyed our stay!

Awesome location, house and cottage are well maintained but there were a few issues. Let me start with saying we have a pretty antisocial group that was planning on staying at the cabin all weekend. After reading reviews of multiple places, we picked Haleywood because it gave us the most options to stay and hang around the cabin all weekend. Other people had mentioned how their families would rather stay at the cabin than go out. This was the complete opposite for our trip.The pool was green and filled with algae. Standing water at all drains, seemingly backed up. Could not hang out in pool or around pool area. They did call a pool company to come out and it was shocked but was told to not get in for 24-48 hours (the duration of our stay). We were not the first guests to have the pool issue but I give Bearcamp Rentals props for addressing this quickly.Some smaller issues - Grill would not heat past 280 degrees (trust me, we tried everything). Had to move our grill out night to the oven and stove. No WiFi in cottage, was told a new modem was added after we left. Random little things like pool table part falling off and a few outlets not working.For just staying in a nice, quiet cabin in the woods this isn’t a bad option. If you’re looking to spend time at the cabin itself and use the amenities. I would look elsewhere. I really hate to rate 3 stars overall but the pictures and amenities did not tell the proper story of this place.

We only booked this property for the pool. We learned after booking the property was not privately owned but managed by Bear Camp Cabin Rentals. We arrived to the most deceiving home. My gut dropped when we arrived and saw the pool. I immediately called when we arrived to report the uncleanliness of the pool. Figures, no one could come out until the next day. They come out around 2pm, cleaned the pool, and shocked it, and we couldn’t swim for 24 hours after shocking. The “hike” to the lake front; STEEP up hill which half the family were unable to access. The ladder to the dock completely broke off the rotting dock causing one of my family members to fall into the lake. Areas of the property were completely blocked off with caution tape, and completely grown over with weeds. Also toilet paper and insulation were eaten by mice! When I called the property management company, they would not relocate us, and offered to refund us a whole 50 a day for the pool we were unable to use. They weren’t a bit concerned about the liability that came with the ladder breaking off the dock with someone on it. The property management company was the absolute worst to work with and they should be ashamed of their customer service, and the owners should be appalled that their home looks like this for vacationers. Shame on you.

Worked great for us .wife loved the kitchen.

Just prepare to hike the steep driveways! But we’ll worth it!

Annex house heater on first floor wasn’t working. Outlets kept tripping and we hadn't had nothing plugged. Water smelled like rotten eggs. Called maintenance guy, he came and didn’t fix nothing, just rooled up his eyes
