Very nice place
The property and the house were very nice! The house was very clean and had everything that you could possibly need. The kitchen was stocked with everything and they had tons of appliances, paper towels, trash bags, Tupperware etc. The kids room was perfect and set up with games that we enjoyed. The dock and kayaks were great and we used them a ton. The only downside of the house was a moisture problem and it subsequently made every door hard to open. Something to keep in mind too is that it’s a community type type place that allows pets so if you aren’t friendly and social and don’t like dogs then it’s not the place for you. We met some very nice people and shared the fire pit with them every night and we enjoyed ourselves. Another negative was that the owner of the property was not very available via phone for questions, we saw him once in passing but at the beginning I couldn’t figure out which door we were supposed to go in and where the lockbox was and it was pouring rain and no answer on the phone. He never even called me back…so all I could think is we would be in trouble in an emergency. I think this should be fixed if you are going to rent out a place. Otherwise we really enjoyed our stay and the whitetail cabins.
