Jun 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home, quiet location, a few issues We really enjoyed our stay. It’s a beautiful, well stocked home in a wonderful, quiet location. That being said, there were a few issues that I let the property manager know about in the hopes they can fix them.1. The water pressure is very low, especially on the top floor. Made showers difficult.2.. WiFi signal was poor throughout the house. Since there’s little to no cellular service either, we struggled to get directions to go anywhere or send messages. We had to drive out of the neighborhood to get any type of service.3. The grill needs servicing or a deep cleaning inside. There’s absolutely no heat control at the moment. When lit, the flames are very high and everything burns, even when the temp is on low.4. The dryer had to be run multiple times to dry clothes. The removable vent is clean so my guess is that it’s clogged somewhere deeper in the vent. ##### Pamela K.

The kitchen was well stocked with all the dishes/cookware you could need. The layout of the house is perfect for vacationing with kids as the bunk room was on a separate floor and/or far away from the theater and garage/game room. Our only complaint was the 9am checkout… with is tough to accomplish with that many people (especially with kids). ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James V.

The house was exactly as advertised and was perfect for our large group. Support from the property manager was also excellent. They allowed us to check in early when the bride decided to change the start time for the first event. During our stay we then experienced a couple of minor issues (we tripped a breaker) that we had to call-in. Renata responded within minutes and got us taken care of. We would definitely stay here again. ##### James V. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zachery S.

The house was thoroughly cleaned and ready for our arrival with no issues. With plenty of beds and bathrooms, everyone stayed comfortable through our trip. Notably, the game room and the outdoor areas of this house got most of our time and attention, but the theater room is worth an honorable mention. We have already discussed plans to book this again in the future if available. ##### Zachery S. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gregory T.

Plenty big enough for our whole family of 16. The property was located about 20 minutes from Mooresville, so not too far when you needed to run out and get something. One draw back for us was the dock. At the time of our stay, the water depth was only 10” and could not accommodate my SAN 230. Bummer!, but the public launch was about a 2 minute drive. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and had a great time. ##### Gregory T. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nakita O.

I wish I had an extra day or two because there are so many amenities I did not have time to enjoy all of them! The pool and hot tub were Amazon! The bedrooms are spacious! The sun room is nice! The views from the living room are amazing! The host was very responsive and nice and answered all my questions quickly! Very professional. I would definitely do over 10x!! ##### Nakita O.

The extra space in the garage was nice to hang out in the evening and the pool area was great, as a peace of mind bonus with little kids the pool is safely gated all around. The house is at the end of the cove and if the water is low getting a boat is not possible. The neighbor was not the friendliest and best to avoid. ##### Stephanie S.

Our only complaints would be about the WiFi and the low lake levels. Luckily we did not have a boat we planned to bring so the water levels didn’t cause us any issues personally. Might just be a time of the year thing! Communication with the property manager was timely and the house was beautiful and private. We did pay to have the pool heated which was a great call and the hot tub was nice as well! ##### Casey J.

My family gathered and stayed for a wedding weekend. We had a house full of people. Towels were plentiful. House was spotless. The theater room and the game room were great! There was something for everyone. What was especially nice was the two refrigerators - a must for that many people. The ambiance of the lake and dock along with the solar lights at night lighting the path to the firepit, was inviting and relaxing. Early every morning, I was the first one up and had coffee while watching the deer crossing the yard with a fog over the lake - awesome! Could use a few more lamps for extra light, in the rooms. I highly recommend home - it was surrounded by small towns with shopping and restaurants. Something for everyone. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Prestige Kamloops Hotel, WorldHotels Crafted](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamloops-Hotels-Prestige-Kamloops-Hotel.h65884.Hotel-Information) > > [Safari Inn, a Coast Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Safari-Inn.h34942.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Berlin](https://www.expedia.ca/Berlin-Hotels.d179892.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Toronto Mississauga/West](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Toronto-MississaugaWest.h16656863.Hotel-Information) > > [SAii Phi Phi Island Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Ko-Phi-Phi-Hotels-SAii-Phi-Phi-Island-Village.h2336620.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Kingston Waterfront by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingston-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Kingston-Waterfront.h4812.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kingston](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingston-Hotels.d6057821.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Keswick](https://www.expedia.ca/Keswick-Hotels.d3000443478.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Downtown Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Ottawa-Ottawa-Hotels.0-n6057857-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Best Western Downtown Plus Music Row](https://www.expedia.ca/Nashville-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Music-Row.h2951.Hotel-Information) > > [Castelo Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Castelo-Guest-House.h20244637.Hotel-Information) > > [Accent Inns Kelowna](https://www.expedia.ca/Kelowna-Hotels-Accent-Inns-Kelowna.h10255.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Churchill (YYQ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yyq/toronto-to-churchill) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Phoenix (PHX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/phx/calgary-to-phoenix) > > [Flights from Thunder Bay (YQT) to Auckland (AKL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqt/akl/thunder-bay-to-auckland) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yyz/vancouver-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yvr/toronto-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Los Angeles (ONT) to Atlanta (ATL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ont/atl/ontario-to-atlanta) > > [Flights from Ahmedabad (AMD) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/amd/yvr/ahmedabad-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/fll/toronto-to-fort-lauderdale) > > [Flights from Detroit (DTW) to San Juan (SJU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dtw/sju/detroit-to-san-juan) ### Cars > [National Car Rental Car Rentals In Victoria Intl](https://www.expedia.ca/National-Car-Rental-Car-Rentals-In-Victoria-Intl.d4872537-c42.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Activities > [Things to do in Santa Clara](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Santa-Clara.d553248623287315690.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Portugal Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Portugal.d147.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Blue Mountain Village Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Blue-Mountain-Village.d553248621532864943.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Destin Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Destin.d6906.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Upper Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Upper-Hot-Springs-Sulphur-Mountain-District.d6072217.Vacation-Attraction) ### General > [Visit Bragg Creek](https://www.expedia.ca/Bragg-Creek.dx56377)
