Enjoyed our stay

We enjoyed our long weekend with family of 10 (adults and college kids). The place could use a deep cleaning - particularly the kitchen - but the basic cleanliness was good. We were there on the off-season, so perhaps the house has been unused for awhile. Overall a good choice for my family.

Great time at SML

First time at SML, stayed at this lovely 6 bedroom place right on the water. Excellent amenities including hot tub (we used it), pool table (also used that), kayaks (ditto) modern appliances, etc. Dock wasn't fancy but that it served well to park the rental boat. Turns out this place is pretty convenient (within 15 minute boat ride) to a couple of nice marina's with restaurants. You can always nit-pick (only bathroom upstairs for two bedrooms is in the master bedroom) but overall this is a lovely place to stay and we had a great time!

NOT WORTH OUR MONEY

The pictures online make the place look better than it really is. This home has 6 bedrooms, 3 floors, and 3 bathrooms. Three of the bedrooms had king size beds, not bad. The other three twin size beds, so for a family with many couples, not good. Due to the amount of rooms, the listing shows this home is good for 10+ people. The main floor consists of a SMALL living room & kitchen with dining area, not big enough for a family. There was only one sofa and loveseat. The kitchen could only fit two people comfortably. It had a small double sink, and barely any room for food that, of course, we had to purchase. There was a drawer in the kitchen that was not aligned correctly, and almost fell on my mom's foot. She scratched herself trying to keep it from falling and the items in it. She is older, and I had to help her pick it back up. A bathroom sink was nasty and clogged up. The good thing is I reached, and they immediately fixed it. The bad thing is if those that stay in that home pay for a cleaning service, why was this not taken care of before we got there. Some bedrooms did not have any locks. Where is the security? The main living areas upstairs and downstairs did not have any curtains, and there were some large windows. Where is the privacy? The tvs were so small in the majority of the rooms, it was sad. No sofa downstairs where the big tv was. It was uncomfortable! Been doing this for 5 yrs, and this was the worse experience! Not enough space to write all.

Great time on the lake

The house was a good size for our group of 8 (two families). We did have an extra bedroom that we didn't use, but it might have been a bit tight with three families. The kitchen had most everything we needed. The outside areas were great - we spent a ton of time on the dock. We also got to use the firepit and hot tub. We rented a boat and were able to keep it at the dock overnight. The lake was not crowded and we lucked out with the weather. We had an awesome time.

Needs work

The honey use is small and needs work The deck was a in bad shape and has holes in it the rugs and carpet is old and needs to be replaced The basement is nice but no couch for the big tv Definitely not worth the nightly charge Also beware we were overcharged over 300.00 and vrbo blamed renal company and rental company blamed vrbo.

Fantastic Family Retrear at the Lake

The house was exactly as advertised. We absolutely loved sitting on the dock, with its covered area and deep water which allowed for light boat traffic to keep us entertained. The owners and property manager were very responsive. We had an issue with the clothes dryer early in our stay, and they came quickly to inspect it and had a new one installed less than 24 hours later. The kitchen was well stocked and had a great table which sat on whole group. Great place! Would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic lakeside retreat!

House was terrific! The set-up of two bedrooms on each floor (one with king bed and the other with twin beds) was the perfect arrangement for multiple families. Everything was very clean inside and the deck + fire pit areas outside were great places to socialize. Location is also terrific. Set near the end of a quiet street right on the lake. Kayaks were in great shape - easy to launch off the dock. A truly wonderful experience!

Well appointed lakehouse

Great house,, nice location with good frontage, spacious lot and great amenities with basement pool table/bar, porches, generous deck furniture, hot tub, firepit, 4 kayaks and large covered dock. Furniture, kitchen, appliances, grill all nice supplies, and plenty for capacity . Would be perfect with 1 more bath for the # of bedrooms, since 1 bath is inside the master. Hottub didn't hold up to lake water suits, daily use and was funky fast; maybe a mid week service or ability to shock it. Instructions from rental company could have been clearer...conflicting info in different emails, but responded quickly to questions.
