Beautiful home

Beautiful home and in a good neighborhood. It was one of the most affordable prices on Vrbo. Having small children I would have loved a tv in the bedrooms. The porch one of the boards fell through but that happens. Host was nice about itOverall good place to stay.

Quiet Paradise

This was the absolute best hidden gem of a vacation spot! The town itself is so charming and friendly...there were so many gorgeous places to explore and the property itself was absolutely perfect.. everything it says and more. The property manager was excellent to deal with as there were a few hiccups on my part but they were so very gracious and accommodating! I can hardly wait to go back!

Nice place to stay

A nice place to stay and beautiful location. Please make sure toilets work properly. The main level overflowed the first time used. Became unusable. We had a 79 year old on the first floor bedroom and I would have to get up with her in the middle of night to walk her up and down the stairs to get her to the upstairs bathroom.that part not pleasant. I feel some compensation should be returned for inconvenience. Calls made daily for repair , never came. Cleaning lady came with lots of towels to clean the floor because of overflow. unusable

This property is extremely clean and well supplied. The only issue is that the toilet on the main floor does not work well and the twin bed is very soft with no support, difficult for an adult to sleep on. The other beds are extremely comfortable.

Honest Review

On the second day the keypad locked us out. We called The VRBO host who didnt answer but the house is for sale so we left a msg for the realtor, after 30 minutes we text the VRBO host back and called again with no answer, Then finally someone text us a new code to get in, The overall outside property is dirty and unkept like you cant sit outside and enjoy the decks. There is no view of the lake. All though the inside was clean it smells like cigarettes. It is an old house so maybe someone lived there a long time that smoked. There were ants in The kitchen and bathroom. The toilets do not flush well so you have to be careful and flush them a lot.

Nicer than it looks in pictures

The house was very clean and a lot nicer than it looks in pictures! The kitchen was so cute. Our only issue was the heater couldn’t really warm the house with the outside temperatures being in the teens so I wish the fireplace was functional but we did find a huge heater in the closet(on our last day). Overall a very nice stay!
