• Nice but has issues

  2/5

  The property is pretty nice overall, but there are a few issues and they don’t tell you things that we thought were important to know before our stay. After the final payment was made, about a week before the stay, we were made aware that all bedrooms are upstairs and there are none on a ground level. That proved difficult for us as we have 3 disabled family members and the stairs were narrow. My father who is 76 tripped going up as there are no handrails in the stairwell.

  Additionally, there is a huge problem with scorpions. We found one in cabin #1’s sink and at night, a family member was bit by a baby one while in laying in bed. Our child was stung in the face (cheek) and multiple were killed on the patio and thresholds.

  We had the kids stay in the cabin lofts but there were no blankets for them. In each loft, they only had a sheet but no blankets. The main house and each cabin are cooled by window units, which means it gets hot and hard to regulate the temperature. It also means you may freeze at night with the 1 thin blanket each bed was provided.

  The place itself is nice and we had a good time. It was well stocked and had extras like toothbrushes, luffas and such. The pier provided a nice place for fishing and swimming as well.

  Owner's response: "Chris, Thank you for mentioning that you found the property nice, and well-stocked with unusual items. We strive to provide a great experience for all our guests.
  
  - When we prepare for our guests we go off of the booking and you booked for 22 adults and that is what we prepared for. We're sorry that you did not have enough bedding, if we knew you would be 33 people we would have prepared accordingly. We do post on our listing a sofa with a new mattress to sleep 2 on the main floor.
  - Unfortunately, we can't always pick our neighbors and some of them are critters. The rain seems to bring out the scorpions and although we do apply pet-friendly granules to keep them away they still seem to visit on occasion.
  
  Thank you for your booking, please know we do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests. We will continue to strive for the 5-star experiences we know we can deliver."

• Just what we needed!!

  5/5

  Very nice for ages 2-84. The area of the lake is just what we were looking for - away from the “crazy”of the busy part of the lake.! Amazing boat dock (probably our favorite thing)! So many little extras to make our stay so convenient and welcoming into the main house and cabins. The life jackets, Lilly pad, diving platform, fishing accessories, outdoor seating, and boat slip were so nice to have available to us. The outdoor grills, black stone and seating on the patio were perfect for our group. New updates were done to the main house, before we arrived, which were wonderful - but not shown/pictured on the listing. I am sure the listing will be updated to show those wonderful changes. We all thoroughly enjoyed our get away.

• Bachelor/bachelorette party

  5/5

  A large group of us stayed here in the cabin for me and my fiancés bachelor/bachelorette party and we were blown away! Cabin came fully stocked with about anything you could possibly need, and then more.

  From the owner: "So happy you enjoyed your stay! Best wishes on your special day."

• Great Holiday

  5/5

  We had all our family (22 of us) at the lake for Memorial Day weekend. The place was great. It was clean and well equipped. The dock was a great place to swim and fish. The separate cabins served us well as we had families with small children who needed an afternoon nap. You should know that there isn't a space to sit down to eat inside.

• Sept. 23 weekend

  5/5

  The property was very private and fun. The neighbors are also very nice.
