Interaction with guests

Can have someone come by if issues arise.

Other things to note

**Please note that the Corp of Engineers does not allow guests the use of the dock. There is a bank that boats can be banked in front of the house on the lake side for loading and unloading. State park Marina 1 mile away has low cost boat slips that you may rent by the day. It is however first come first serve.

Lake levels reduce in cold months, a great time to hike and explore the lake bottom.
*** 5/13/23 I wanted to make guest aware that lake levels this year will be 5 feet lower due to Dam Repairs. Swimming and fishing should still be great fun and launching a boat at the ramp at state park will still be available. We hope to move our docks up the shore for better access to the water while the repairs are in process.

Annual Labor Day/Birthday Weekend
Perfect location!!! We loved the house and the closeness to the lake with dock. Very spacious and very clean. The owner went way over and beyond for us and was easy to get ahold of. We are hoping this house will be our new house for Labor Day weekend!!! Thank you!

Relaxing weekend
We didn’t get to use the house much or even walk down to the lake. We mostly had coffee in the morning and just slept there because we were busy at our cousin’s house and the state park for our annual family reunion. The house was perfect for the 4 of us and we didn’t even need one bedroom or the downstairs. We would stay again!

good lake access. well equipped.
Nice screened in porch. Easy slope to water. well equipped small kitchen. We brought our boat and tied up with no problem. The State ramp is nearby. state dock/fuel nearby. We had a nice stay. Had a good meal at nearby Big Mouths restaurant. This is listed as a non-smoking property, however, the home had a very very very very strong weed odor which was a bit offensive. One of us also had an allergic reaction to a blanket with probable animal dander. There is a firepit, but no firewood. The parking is limited. All in all, We spent most of our time on the lake and had a great time.

Very clean & excellent location!
We really liked staying at this property! We stayed over the week of Thanksgiving to attend dinner at the home of nearby family. We had 6 adults and 2 teens ranging 12-80 and there was adequate space for everyone. It was also easily accessible for 3 seniors, one of which is completely blind. The house is extremely clean, well furnished, and has comfortable bedding and a well-stocked kitchen. The 3 levels gave us all space. I can see that this would be a fantastic place for a summer stay with the outdoor spaces and the lake. However, the house doesn't have hot tub as the listing states and the owner requests that you take showers, not baths, even though it does have a tub. The only negative for me was the lack of transparency about having to conserve water due to there being a septic or black water tank. I feel like this should be clearly stated in the listing. I have never encountered this in renting homes many places, including drought states, like California. We only stayed 4 nights in November, so it wasn't a problem for us. However, if I were planning to stay there a week in the summer I would expect to be able to do a couple loads of laundry per day of towels and swimsuits for hygienic purposes. The listing states there is a washer and dryer, but doesn't mention that personal laundry is limited. I only found that out after booking. For a long weekend or if you don't mind the water limitations this is an outstanding,fantastic rental. I would definitely stay there again!

Perfect for a family weekend
This was the perfect house for three generations traveling together. The location was great, with its access to the lake. We enjoyed taking out the provided kayaks, making s’mores in the fire pit, and relaxing on the screened in porch.

We loved this house and property, plenty of room for four adults and three children. We swam in the water right off the property and also in the nearby beach. The kids enjoyed making smores in the fire pit and catching frogs. Our stay was very fun, relaxing and quiet.

Falls of the Rough
Everything was great. The only surprise was the water restriction. We are a family of 10 and did the best we could. Limited showers, no personal laundry, full dishwasher, and limited flushing. Otherwise it was great. Clean when arrived and we left clean as well. Easy boat rental and friendly neighborhood.
