Decent house, not boat friendly
I booked this house because it had a boat dock and lift. The pictures depict a covered boat dock with a lift. The dock is not covered and the lift doesn’t work. In fact, the lift is in the way, making the boat dock unusable for a boat. The listing discussed renters can have the boat dock, without mentioning that renters can’t use the lift. I was unaware that the owners do not want renters to park their boat in the dock and use the lift. When I texted them about it, they said we could tie up to the side of the dock, which is not doable with any wind. This dock is located on the main lake without protection from wind and waves. It was very dangerous to try and tie up next to the dock without the ability to tie it inside the dock or lift up on the boat lift.
Furthermore, the community boat ramp has a small pier that doesn’t have any cleats or anywhere to tie up to, which made it very difficult for one person to manage. There is no shore to pull up to, and no cleats to tie to. The lake was rough and made it difficult. This is why it was impactful to not have use of the boat dock and lift. This should have been disclosed on the listing and not a surprise after the fact. I would not have rented this house.
The driveway is long and downhill with turns. It is not boat and boat trailer friendly. There was no outside outlet to plug in my boat and charge it.
This rental was a waste of time and money for us. More trouble than it was worth.
