Retro Lake Landing | Pet Friendly, Great Outdoors!

We booked this last minute when another property cancelled on us the day before our visit. The home is unique. Beds are comfortable. The deck was nice for coffee and the sunrise. Nice to have lake access. Could have been cleaner, especially the outside. Many broken chairs were at he lakeside, those should be removed. A bit further removed from where we wanted to be but a nice quiet neighborhood.

This property is probably a better choice in the winter when you can see the lake through the trees. The round retro house is setup for beautiful lake views but some true pruning would be needed to see the lake from the home in the summer. Access to the lake is down a steep, rustic path that needs a good leave and stick clearing. And no yard to speak of for small children. Hot tub is very nice and clean. The home and furniture is showing some wear, as do many older rentals.

A lot of things went wrong on this trip and I have to attribute 100% of them to the property management company, Taylor Made.The door code was wrong and we had to call Taylor made for a new code. Luckily we didn't show up after office hours or we would have been sleeping in the car.The hot water main was not turned on. We had no hot water until I found the main to turn it on to the house.On day 2, a worker showed up unannounced to fill the hot tub that was not only not filled but, it was partially disassembled when I saw it. The hot tub was a big part of the reason we chose this place.When the worker was filling the hot tub, the house water pressure went to 0 psi and we had no running water at all in the house. I had to turn of the outside faucet so we could shower and do dishes.The listing and the literature in the house said PET FRIENDLY so we brought our cat. We went for a walk and when we came back our cat was seemingly gone. We thought another unannounced worker possibly let it out. When I called the rental office to see if another worker was there, I was told cats aren't allowed and I could either board it or leave. We left...2 days early. I guess the no cat policy is in the FINE PRINT of the 10 page 7 font unreadable on a smart phone contract that you get AFTER you pay. Worst VRBO experience ever and I've been using VRBO for almost 2 decades.

Was a little cool, the hot tub made it better.

Everyone was as pictured. Lake was secluded and pretty. Great place for having outdoor fires, lying on dock watching stars, and getting away from it all. I would come back.

It was a lovely property, but for the price I paid for it I really don’t think I should have to provide my own paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, dish soap, etc. A small thing that will most likely keep me away from this management company in the future

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The geography of this rental was bad in several ways and it was in need of maintenance. The driveway was extremely steep and narrow and parking more than one vehicle was nearly impossible. The hike from the dock back to the house was an Olympic event with only 1/4 of the path having stairs and the rest dirt/mud. Driving to and from this property required a very steep ascent and descent up and down the mountain. The property is on a main thoroughfare of the lake with constant wakes crashing into the dock, making fishing and docking a boat challenging. The property was not very well maintained and appliances are antiques. The deck was in poor condition and we discovered multiple maintenance issues inside the house. The only positive was that this house is secluded and private.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The retro lake landing house is quirky and fun but there were a few issues. The hot tub was not working from day one, it took 5 days for it to be fixed, allowing one day for our use. The property managers did address the issue but it took the whole week. Beds were adequate, linens good, a few broken things in the house like a hinge making the door close difficult. Kitchen equipment was great, any cooking utensil you can think of. We had a great time at the fire pit on the beach. I would suggest bringing camp chairs for the fire pit and dock. The driveway is very steep but our two wheel car did ok with some driving skills. Lake access and dock are great.

The washing machine started leaking and the management company sent someone over within a couple hours to fix it. We would stay ther again especially as we were able to take our dog with us.
