Lynn D.

Clean but not in great shape
1. Super steep stairs to get up to Unit D- would not recommend for anyone with bad knees/hips, elderly, poor balance. 2. Bad smell- like chemicals- not good. 3. It was clean but very old- seemed like carpets and furniture had been there since the 70’s. Kitchen was remodeled nicely. 4. It is listed as air-conditioned. There is ONE AC window type unit in the living room. None in the bedrooms. In order get the bedrooms cool enough to sleep in, we had to leave the doors open and have the fans pull in air from living room. 5. The neighborhood was safe and well-maintained and the little beach area was cute although we did not swim there. Overall—Meh.

Neighborhood away from home
Clean and spacious. Very comfortable. We were in the upstairs unit and as others have mentioned, the stairs are a bit steep, but there are railing to hold. Quiet neighborhood - lake access a short walk away has a nice picnic table.
