Beautiful Lake House with Some Room for Improvement
My friends and I stayed at this beautiful lake house for a week-long getaway. Overall, we had a fantastic time, but there are areas that could use attention.
What we liked/loved:
The view of the lake was breathtaking. We spent as much time as possible enjoying the view from the covered deck.
The open flow between the living/dining room and kitchen was perfect for spending time together.
The kitchen was well-stocked with pots and pans, making preparing meals easy.
The beds in the main house were incredibly comfortable, and the bedding was clean and cozy. The entire house was clean and well-maintained.
The game room was a hit among our group, and the second refrigerator was great!
What should/could be better:
One significant issue was the persistent standing water in the backyard, particularly around the covered deck and firepit area. This made the yard largely unusable and attracted a lot of bugs.
We didn’t swim because of the amount of seaweed in the lake. We understand the owners can’t control the amount of seaweed, but investing in some remediation (e.g.vacuuming or raking) would improve the experience.
The bedrooms and bunkhouse need curtains. We hung sheets for privacy and to block light so we could sleep.
The bunkhouse needs a dehumidifier to maintain a more comfortable and bug-free environment. The sheets and blankets felt damp most nights.
The a/c units struggled to keep the house cool, particularly on hotter days. The spare rooms were warm at night.
