A little less than expected

It’s a beautiful setting with an amazing view. It could just use some repainting, some updated furniture, some general maintenance, and a real good deep cleaning.

A relaxing but fun weekend.

I went here for my birthday with all my friends. There was the perfect amount of space for us all to play games together throughout the house. The views were incredible. Definitely a great place for a getaway weekend with those you love.

Great memories

We rented the house to spend a weekend riding horses and hanging out with friend and family. One house had everything we needed. We especially enjoyed the fire pit. The location is convenient to restaurants and grocery store. Maybe we will be back in the summer to enjoy the dock area.

Great Place for late Fall weekend trip

The property overall is great. the location is plus. It is little tricky to find the entry at night. some of our party feedback 1. the beds are too soft other than the beds in master bedroom. 2. there is no dishwasher detergent. After communicating with Laura, we were told someone will drop some, but we did not see any during our stay. We ended up hand-wash all dishes during our 3-night stay, which is not ideal. when we left, we basically have to hand wash them and load them into the dishwasher without any detergent.

Wonderful Family Vacation In A Beautiful Settings!

The property delivered as promised and offered A LOT of something for each family member! We went swimming everyday, rented a boat from the very nearby marina and had a great time fishing off the dock. Kids didn't want to leave and us grownups cannot blame them! Looking forward to a return next summer.
