Jul 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We really enjoyed our stay and loved the property. The house is perfect - just renovated, extremely clean and equipped with all appliances and conveniences which make the stay very easy and pleasant. There are 3 spacious bedrooms, and a nice family/dining room connected with the kitchen. Kitchen has everything you need - coffee maker, toaster, microwave, dishwasher, big fridge, all kitchenware and utensils, common spices etc. The bathrooms are beautiful, very clean and conveniently located. There is a smart TV in every room and even in the finished basement. The house has central AC, which was perfect because we stayed during the heat wave. Big, clean washer and dryer were a huge plus. The location is great - not directly on any of the lakes, which gives it a great sense of privacy, but also in close vicinity and an easy driving distance from the lakes and other area attractions. The hospitality of the host is incredible. We communicated via VRBO mailbox and she answered all of my questions and was very pleasant to speak with. Truly a great property and we would love to come back next year. ##### Yulia S. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy N.
