Great but false advertisement
We booked this place back in December for a short ski trip with friends and family. We specifically searched a house that would have a hot tub since half of the group wouldn’t be skiing and it would be something to look forward too. On arriving the hot tub wasn’t even full and when checking the original listing the wording and pictures had been updated to reflect that there was no hot tub at the property. No communication prior from the host that something had broken with the hot tub. We would’ve understood an advance if something had happened. But to show up expecting it and knowing that that’s why we specifically got the house. It was very frustrating and upsetting. It honestly did put a damper on the weekend because half the group was really looking forward to it. And Tad insult injury, as soon as we were leaving Monday at 10 the trucks were showing up at the new hot tub. Again, communication would’ve made all of this so much easier. But unfortunately, I will never stay at this place again because it felt very unprofessional and Sneaky. Put a bad taste in all of our mouths for staying at this specific property again. Also, if the price reflects the view that having a Jacuzzi at a house would increase stays, I think our booking price should be reflected in that. Thank you.

This property was as described and clean! We all had a great time and spent lots of time on the kayaks included! If you have a large party, bring coolers because the refrigerator is a standard half fridge/half freezer. The owner had prompt response to questions and was pleasant.

Mom’s birthday weekend
The inside was very clean. The beds were comfortable. The dining room with the view of the lake was very nice except for the bugs and cobwebs on the outside of the windows. The deck was also great except for the spiders and bugs on the side of the house. It was all as described but I would suggest that the cleaning people also take a look at the deck area. Overall, we had a great stay!

We had a great stay! Everything was clean and spacious. Quiet area which we really enjoyed. Only complaint was that the chlorine smelled really strong, throughout the house. I would check to be sure the amount you were using is correct. Also, a paddle boat would be an awesome addition!

Great Everything!
This property was amazing! Very clean and spacious. Plenty of room and sleeping accomdations for nine people to be comfortable. Kitchen had evertything we needed! The management company was extremely prompt and attentive to our questions during our stay. The sauna and hot tub were an extra bonus for the skiers when they got off the slopes. Albeit we stayed over the Christmas holiday to ski in the area, I would highly recommend this property for a winter or summer stay. Beautiful home and lake setting.

Beautiful place to stay on a lake and very spacious.
It was so nice have a hot tub and sauna to come back to and warm up from a day in the woods hunting in cold temps and snow storm. We did play a few games during our stay and would have been nice to have more games and some puzzles to work on during our stay. We might have to come back in the summer to enjoy the lake. We highly recommend this place.

Cancelled day of
We drove hours to get there only to find that the property cancelled on us because of a back up in the sewage system. They had contacted me 4 hours before check in and I was so busy preparing for the stay that I missed the 1 phone call and 1 email that was given to me. We were stranded hours away from home and the only thing vrbo and this property offered me was a refund. I understand things can be out of their control but this was handled inadequately.

Right away there were complaints about noise. Had the radio on not loud and was playing corn hole and got a complaint about being loud. Boys were skipping ricks from the ground in the lake and weren’t aloud to do that either. Felt like we were being watched the whole time by the ring camaras. When I booked the reservation it clearly states must be 18 to reserve and the day we were on the way there they needed someone to be 21 to stay. There was an ant problem. If the the age to book was 21 then that should have been brought up the day I booked the reservation not weeks later on the day of our arrival

Great house on a small lake
My husband, 10 year old daughter and my dog enjoyed our five nights at this property. We really liked being right on the lake, my dog especially. He had a lot of fun swimming around in the shallow water. We enjoyed the fire pit by the water and the beautiful sunsets. We used the sauna and hot tub and cooked a few meals in the kitchen. It had everything you needed along with a nice grill. The beds were comfortable and everything was decorated nicely. We noticed some areas that could use a deeper cleaning: like the vents, the ceiling lights and along the walls and baseboards, but overall it was clean. I did let the property manager know so these should be addressed. Getting these things taken care of will make this rental even better. I'd definitely go back and am sad to go home and back to work next week.
