All good
Front door dead lock needs attention. Doors in master bedroom need serious fixing. We just find it strange that we pay for a clean of the property, yet we are required to vacuum. We also have to remove our rubbish and no rubbish bin is provided this is nota very good thing to require when we pay to stay ….we suppose some people are very dirty so perhaps a slightly different approach like pay more for cleaning or less if you clean. We still had a great time thx again

Our 3 night getaway
Our experience renting this property was pretty good. We all enjoyed our stay and having walking distance to the lake was so great. Plenty of room for outside games and plenty of room out on the deck to have a bbq and enjoy snacks and dinner out on.
