We enjoyed our extended weekend stay here.
A short 5-10min walk down the hill gets you to the lake. The water was a bit low, but that left the sand island in the cove exposed, worked out perfect for day camp with the kayaks/paddle boards. The rock jump and rope swing was right across the cove, but with the water a bit low at the time, it didn't look safe.
We didn't spend a lot of time in the house, spent most of the time on the lake in the day, and down at Ducey's area at night.
Worked out great for our base home.
AC worked really well in both the living room and the master bedroom, would be good to have another one in the extra bedroom, my daughter slept on the couch in the living room, and she had no complaints.
Master bed was very comfortable.
Loved the balcony (If some of the trees were trimmed you'd have a view of the lake)
1 morning we did see a bear wandering right below the balcony, that was pretty exciting, luckily no one was down on the street in the area.
Also saw 2x bears in the Ducey area, the rangers were there and kept the situation safe.
Best to be careful in this area with that and keep those garbage cans closed.
The backyard area was great as well, enjoyed the gas fire pit to finish off every night.
Kitchen seemed to have everything you'd need if you planned on cooking, but we just used the fridge.
Phone service was not good, but expected in the area, so could make it difficult to find the place, I took screenshots of directions before leaving so it worked out for us.
The internet worked great in the house.
Melinda was awesome, there was a big fire in the area right before our trip, that cut out electricity the day before our arrival, which threatened our extended weekend trip, but she communicated very effectively with giving the info she had and was willing to refund if the power wasn't restored.
We drove up anyways without knowing what to expect, the electric came on a few hours after our arrival, so it worked out perfect.
Would definitely consider living on the ledge again
Thank you Melinda, your place is very nice, the family loved the decor and overall ambiance and we enjoyed our stay
