Lakefront Retro Style Retreat with Cedar Sauna, central AC, jacuzzi - fits 18ppl

This is a beautiful house, in a great location. The only downside was the beds. The sofa beds and the mattresses on the bunk beds are of low quality and not comfortable to sleep on. Some of us weren't able to get more than a few hours of sleep a night. This is a major problem, but one that is easy to solve.

Generally nice area, room for the amount of people we had was adequate. Problems involving septic stench in sections of the home and inadequate kitchen set up (wet and dirty dishes upon arrival, not enough pans or common seasonings/condiments available that are normally found at other properties.) Not enough cleaning and hygiene supplies for a week long stay, maybe fine for a weekend. (Had to buy detergent, toilet paper, paper towels, etc.) There is also a missing door handle on one side of the home. Location is great, other than the lack of access to the river from the property itself. (steps to the river were overgrown and inaccessible) Some information on the property was missing that would have been appreciated pre-arrival. The floorplan is strange.The lake experience trumps the cons and working around the homes quirks is worth it.

We had a family of 14 & found there was space for all. Very convenient to beach. We drove instead of walking due to all the beach items we wanted to take to beach and it took only 2 mins. to get there. The beach & lake are great for little kiddos & older kiddos - lots of sandy beach & warm lake water.

Mattresses are not good quality, very uncomfortable, sofas are small, meant more for children. Listing says blackout curtains, however those are only on the lower windows/sliding doors. not the large windows above or skylights. very bright rooms which is nice but hard when you're travelling with young children Parking was extremely confusing upon arrival. We wish that the listing provided more information regarding the parking/# of vehicles allowed. We felt like the unit does not provide enough on-site parking for how many people it is supposed to sleep. Any vehicles that did not fit in the yard we had to park up at the top of the hill and walk down to the cabin which was a security concern for us. Should have a map inside units. We did not like that the neighbors approaching us to discuss any concerns that should be taken up with the owner of the property (ie. parking) For the smaller unit, it was concerning that the dryer is not vented outside of the unit. We were not made aware of this before running the dryer and it caused the inside of the house to get VERY hot. This is a big safety / fire hazard. - The HVAC system needs some attention. It would cool down the large unit beside the AC however the middle and smaller units all struggled to get cool. - The yard is NOT kid friendly. Very uneven walkways, loose gravel, tripping hazards from edge of pavers, septic tank lids No screens no firepit, propane tanks were not full. Kitchens need better pots and pans!

Worked out nicely, the air freshener dispensers were a bit much for the chemo sensitive folks but overall a good experience for our group
