We had a fun weekend even with it being a little windy. The kids enjoyed the pool and fishing off the dock. Being only 4years old and 6 years old they caught a lot of fish off the dock. They caught a crappie, northern, bass and at least 3 different kinds of sun fish. the neighbors were great, helpful, and friendly also. The Bungalow had what we needed.
Unit was clean and need was comfortable. Nothing fancy, but everything you should need. Didn't get to use pool or lake access.

Disliked: Cleanliness
short stay
The unit hadn't been cleaned since the previous people had been there. after voicemails and texts, the owner contacted us and was able to get ahold of the cleaning company to come and clean it 2 hours after we had arrived to check in.
Once we came back after the cleaner had been there, it was very nice and clean and looked as it should.
Microwave didnt work. Bedroom light and fan didnt work. Needs better identification sign in front of bungalow. Front room fan doesn't work well. Doesn't blow alot of air. Sofa is too low.
Otherwise its a nice place with basics table, kitchen, bathroom, and Bedroom.

It worked perfect for myself, was nice to have the privacy, and comfort.
Great location! We were a ten minute drive from downtown but also tucked away in the mountains that we felt like we were truly in a hideaway! Our toddler LOVED the outdoor patio and we spent our mornings watching for bears. Would definitely book again.
Perfect get away. Pool and lake within short walking distance. Can catch panfish right from the shore and there is a fish cleaning shack. Place is stocked with just about everything you need. Kids brought a volleyball and had a lot of fun playing at the volleyball net. Big sandbox for smaller kids. Nice firepit and 4 camp chairs included. New grill. Didn't need to contact owners for anything, but communication was great for booking and checking out.
