The beds and linens were better than home. We have already ordered the fabulous pillows they have. Worth every penny! ##### Merritt W. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristen T. Oct 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Exactly what we needed! Everything was so cozy, clean, & perfect for our little family. Loved the game room/garage & was grateful that the neighbors let us use their dock since the lake is low/property’s dock was not usable. The way the “fun stuff” (hot tub/game room/lake access/fire pit) is laid out makes it perfect for everyone to do their own thing but still be together. Beds were cozy & the location is perfectly quiet so we all got a good night’s sleep each night. Appreciated the huge washer & dryer (especially since we visited from Asheville and haven’t had water here lately) & all the little touches in the very well stocked kitchen (stocked with small appliances/essentials for cooking). My only feedback for a better experience would be to include a photo of the private side road where you turn to access the house. We arrived after sunset and had a really hard time finding our way to the driveway. ##### Kristen T.

We stay at 4-5 rentals around the U.S. per year and this was the nicest place we have ever stayed. It had everything we needed, it was clean and decorated so cutely. The game room and dock are a bonus for this place. There is a cooler and a couple of folding chairs in the game room area. I have never seen a cleaner hot tub!!! There were two areas to sit outside. The dock was great it is shallow but we got our boat in and out without any problems. Can't wait to come back. ##### Sheila W. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Debra F. Sep 4, 2024 #### Cute house - convenient location We enjoyed the house itself, it was an older home that had been recently updated and was very cute inside. The location felt very safe and was convenient to several restaurants. We had read previous reviews that the lakefront wasn’t very accessible, due to the dock not extending into deeper water. Those reviews were accurate. We were not able to get into “swimming” territory, since you’d have to wade a long way through a squishy, clay like bottom to get out to deep water. If the house had been equipped with kayaks or some type of inflatable water toys, then maybe we could have gotten out on the lake. So, bring your own kayaks or floats if you have them. One other item to note, although it wasn’t a problem for us, but we noticed - is there are 4 motorhomes set up on a neighboring property. You pass them coming and going from the house. ##### Debra F. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shannon G. Aug 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect home and furnishings - boat trip dock fail The home is absolutely adorable, well furnished and comfortable. The location and proximity to the lake is perfect for those who want a lake vacation. The views in the area are stunning and the manage communicated quickly. Everything about this stay was perfect except the dock and the wifi, which were mentioned by other reviewers. Based on those reviews we looked at the photos and how high the present lake levels were and we thought we would be pretty safe. Unfortunately, that was not the case and we were not able to dock our boat. If we had a pontoon boat we may have been fine, but with our small crownline it wasn’t possible. The other issue with bringing the boat, and not being able to dock, is that the road to the house is a very narrow dirt road. We were able to pull our boat there on the trailer, but if it had been any bigger we would have been hard pressed to turn it around. Again-the home itself was absolutely delightful and we would stay here again, but if we wanted to rent a house we could dock our boat at every night, this would not be the one. ##### Shannon G. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jeff T. Sep 7, 2024 #### Boat dock is in the mud I booked this because it was advertised to have a boat house. There was one in front of the house which was stuck in the mud and unusable, so I assumed that was an old one no longer in use and I pulled into the empty boat house right next to it thinking it must be the correct one. But it belonged to the property next door, which I had no way of knowing, and vacasa called me after 9 at night to move it. I moved it the next morning and the neighbor was yelling at me that he’d call the cops and have me arrested for trespassing. Absolutely crazy. So we ended up trailering the boat which was a hassle given the very tight turns and roads, and we could have stayed home and done the same thing. The whole point was to have our boat in the water right in front of the house but that was impossible. The photos show the boathouse floating, but if the lake goes down 2 feet it’s stuck in the mud although the neighboring docks were floating. This house has a bridge to the boathouse that is way too short. The house is cute, but there are lots of nice houses to rent. if you want to keep your boat in the water, look elsewhere. ##### Jeff T. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### John B. Jul 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location #### Great Location / Property contents need updating. At first glance the ranch style home is inviting with an obvious “lake” theme. Nicely located in a side cove, the dock is short and does not extend past the muck/mud and does not have a ladder to climb back up if you choose to swim in or float on the lake from the dock. Docking a boat, shallow. The hot tub was lovely and comfortable for 4 adults. We cook and found the kitchen to have good appliances but was lacking in serving bowls, silverware needs to be updated (no grown up forks or serving spoons), some of the skillets just need to be thrown out and bring your own sharpened knives if you plan on cooking. Only 2 trash bags are provided and when we arrived, the outside trash bin was full until trash pick up on Tuesday. The grill needs to be replaced as the bottom it is very rusted as are the burner covers and flame up hazardously. The bathrooms are good sized but bring your own toiletries as 1-1 oz shampoo and cream rinse for each bathroom with 4 people lasts 2 showers. Each bathroom was stocked with a set of towels (2 bath, 3 hand, 3 wash cloths) and a floor mat but only 2 rolls of TP. No beach towels are available, bring your own. The main bedroom was spacious with a dresser and large closet. Sadly, none of the mattresses in any of the bedrooms were comfortable. Neither of the two non-main bedrooms had dresser storage. Caution with the sunken living room, the BIG step down can be a trip/step down hazard for short, children, or physically impaired people. ##### John B. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Tobin B. Jun 5, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good property, but... It's a beautiful house, and it has great access to the lake with a dock for your boat (in season). The game room/garage was very popular, and the hot tub was hot and ready. A few negatives: Internet was horrible when we first arrived. We had no working internet for the 1st half of our 4 night stay. The management tried to help, but bless their hearts, they're not IT. Between my bro-in-law and myself, we got it working "good" (not great). Evidence suggested that it is a bad CAT 5 cord, or bad port on a router. The wifi needs a serious, and much simpler, hardware upgrade. Some form of restitution should have been offered as it compromised school work, and business for some of the guests. 2) The road that gives access to the house is different from the street address, and was confusing/hard to find. It's also in a state of disrepair, but perhaps that's a city council issue. 3) The cleanliness of the property was compromised by pet hair. Strange as it is not a pet-friendly rental. The cleaning crew needs to pay more attention to corners, and under furniture, as pet hair would find it's way out from those areas. There was also lots of pet hair on the 2 chairs in the living room. They would "shed" on our clothes. There was also pet droppings littered across the lawn. One of the guests stepped in some, and it was a nuisance. Not sure how this happened, but please look into it. I might stay here again, because it was a nice house w/great lake access. Just a lot to consider. ##### Tobin B.
