Great spot for family vacation
Excellent spot for a quiet, comfy family lake vacation. The cove is really lovely, peaceful and safe. Lake access is from a very well-maintained dock and walkway. Kayaks, stand-up paddleboard, many sizes of life vests were super helpful. Ideal for families. Big property in a quiet, private area. We liked that there are actually two buildings (one is an apartment above the garage), separated by the driveway. There are a lot of great things about the house. Bedrooms are big, beds are super comfy. Porches and decks are really nice; great furniture, fans and shades. We spend most of our time outside on the deck. Deck dining table and chairs, grill, etc. are in great shape. Just note that there are some funky things about the house as well. The two main bathrooms are very tight with an unusual layout, requiring you to walk into the hallway to use the sink. Upstairs shower leaks actively into the downstairs shower below; clearly been that way for some time. I get that this would be a major repair and would take a while to schedule and undergo. Both showers work great, but if you're trying to shower during or after someone showers upstairs, you're going to get water from above raining on you through the ceiling light fixture. Kitchen needs baking dishes. Couch needs repair. Garage apt smells very musty. Gate doesn't function on one side, open all the time. That said, we really would stay again! Rental co was extremely responsive and great.

Family Labor Day Get Away
The house was perfect for our family and we had plenty of room! There was a lot to do on the property and in the lake. We enjoyed our stay very much! We found we did not have enough linens, and we were glad we brought our own beach towels. We had a lot of issues getting in the gate, and we were glad the maintenance man was there to let us in. We had a big issue with upstairs shower leaking in the downstairs shower, and the bathroom in the extra house had mold in it. The WIFI wasn’t very stronger for a house of 12 people. There wasn’t a coffee pot and we ended up buying one and leaving it at the house for the next renters. The Keurig wasn’t what we typically use, but we like a brewed pot. Overall it was a great vacation and we were pleased. This is just some constructive feedback.
