We would definitely stay here again! The house was well stocked. There was nothing we wished we had or couldn’t find at the house. From marshmallow roasting sticks to blankets and pillows everything was there. There is even a printer for those flying who need to print boarding passes. The beds were comfortable. I guess the only thing we would probably suggest is a pullout sofa in the loft. We had 7 people and even though the listing says sleeps 8, there is really only 6 sleeping spots. The current sofas are very nice for sitting but a little short for an adult to sleep on. We brought a blowup mattress but the teenager with us insisted the short couch would be fine and they did sleep well there. The location was perfect and we are so thankful they included the proximity to the Lacawac Sanctuary in the listing. It sealed the deal for why we picked this house. We were there for a wedding at the sanctuary. Part of us took the trail at the end of Shore Dr. through the woods to the venue, a beautiful half mile walk. Our host was prompt to reply to any inquiries we had. We really appreciated their hospitality.

The house was cozy and clean but there were a few issues. The main issue was the "1 minute walk to the lake." It was one minute BUT there was no real access - a muddy shoreline you could not swim in, a dock that you are not allowed to fish from or swim from. There is no public beach - so where is the water access?? This forced us to rent a boat for over 600!! You need to update the house description!Vacation homes usually have a welcome folder with info about the area - things to do and see. This house had a booklet with information about doing construction on homes in the community - not sure why we needed that information. Other issues: side door did not lock during the whole stay (we emailed but they did not send anyone to fix it), no extra bath towels, and we were not able to turn on the porch ceiling fans, family room ceiling fan, backyard string lights, and a couple of the TVs.
