Lounge at the Lake with 6 waterpark passes! 50% off rate for 28 day min. stay.

8/10 Good

"Nice, clean property, family friendly! Appreciated the great communication from host and being able to check out late. Only suggestions would be minor little things to make it feel more like home (have also experienced at other vacation rentals): more kitchen towels (there were only 2 for hand drying/dishes), a night light, pen/paper, beach towels, coffee pods, soap/shampoo. Also, the bed in the bedroom was too soft for my liking. Be aware that due to the structure of the house, there are no curtains for the top/A part of the structure so sleeping upstairs exposes you to all of the bright lights from other houses/windmill lights at night (there is a small curtain but it doesn't block everything) and all outdoor light throughout the day. Overall, a great little place!"
