Aug 24, 2024 #### Great place Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property description was spot on. It was very clean. We had a couple problems the first night. Power went out and no water. Liz was very responsive and everything worked out fine. We had a great stay. The lake was beautiful especially hearing the loons. Only complaint is there is nothing close by in terms of good food. Great place to get away and relax. ##### Carmel E.
