Lakefront Home w/ Screened Porch & Grill

• Nice Home Questionable Location

  3/5

  The home was very clean, view on lake was pretty, and the host was very nice. The neighborhood was questionable. I should have looked on Google Earth and street view before booking but the address isn't visible until you book. I didn't check because it is lakefront property so assumed the neighborhood would be nice. It is not. There were run down and abandoned properties, house next store had abandoned cars and junk everywhere. Stereo's were blaring and marijuana smell was overwhelming getting out of the car. I contacted the owner and she did call neighbors to turn down music, however I didn't feel safe. Windows in the front of the house were bolted shut which was good considering the neighborhood but telling on safety. The house was nicely decorated and clean but not a place I would ever stay again due to the location. The owner was kind and insisted it was safe but I am sorry I don't agree. Even the safety instructions in the guest book eluded to this fact. Check street view on Google Earth for accuracy. didn't cheev

  Hi Ruth, the homeowners were disappointed to read your review, as they are accustomed to providing 5-star experiences, and would like to clarify the following:
  - The neighboring property was recently sold, and the previous tenant was in the process of moving out during your stay. That home is now vacant and set to be renovated, which should help improve the overall feel of the area.
  - We stay at the property ourselves and have always felt safe in the neighborhood. We’re sorry your experience didn’t reflect that and understand how important peace of mind is while traveling.
  - The windows aren’t bolted shut but do have removable safety locks installed where some latches were damaged. These were added as a temporary measure to ensure guest security, especially given the older style of the windows.
  - We appreciated you reaching out during your stay and were glad we could help with the nearby noise. We’re always happy to step in if something needs to be taken care of.
  
  Thanks for taking the time to leave your review.

  4/5

  Property was an older home that has been nicely remodeled. It is located in a neighborhood and not a subdivision so there will be some noise being that it is a block from a main roadway but is not unbearable. The property owner was in contact via text message several times making sure we had everything we needed and making sure our stay was enjoyable. The view from the back patio was beautiful. The bathrooms are a little small but like I said the home is very nice an spacious.

  5/5

  This property was beautiful, spacious and very clean. There were extension cords and chargers everywhere. Sitting on the back porch provided peaceful relaxation and gorgeous views. We were attending a wedding during our stay and the host helped me find a local hairdresser that came to the house and did a fabulous job! This is a great place to stay and I highly recommend!
