Decompressing at the lake

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this house. We spent every day down on the dock and when it warmed up enough we were in the water. We had fun watching the swallows that next under the boat house zooming around. The house had everything we could possibly need. Be sure to check out two of the local eateries, Getting sauced in the city and Jenny Cakes. Cute places with really nice owners. It was a great week of relaxing.

Thanksgiving

Here for the week of Thanksgiving. Property just as pictured, communication with owner was perfect. Everything you need for cooking your on meals is stocked in the kitchen. We used the Blackstone on the deck often. Ate dinner at the Waterside a couple nights the food there is excellent. Sat on the dock watched the sun sets. Would book again.

Great place to stay

Communication with the host before our check in date and during was amazing. The house was clean and equipped with everything we needed from linens to many kitchen utensils and appliances. It was an easy walk down to the dock and the dock was an amazing place to hang out all day and enjoy the lake and my dog loved the easy access to the lake from the boat ramp on the property! Overall great stay great time!

Amazing Stay

This property was all it was cracked up to be. The host, Richard, was readily available when needed, which wasn’t often. The home is amazing. Stunning views of the lake. Circle floor plan worked out great for the kids. Very nice dock and water toys (kayak, paddle board and peddle boat. Huge kitchen. Plenty of room for me, my four daughters, son-in-law and two grandkids. We never felt like we were in each others way. I highly recommend this property, except on July 4th weekends, because I will be booking it every year on the 4th, until I buy my own place lol.

It has potential

I enjoyed the availability of the kayak at the property. Overall there was great space for our weekend trip. Please note the description is correct that there’s 3 bedrooms however it’s listed as 4 bedrooms. The 4th is an open loft area with a bunk bed. The cleaning was questionable. The shower liner was molded and pink/red residue around the drains. There’s a great amount of pet hair. This place would benefit from a power wash to the exterior of the property especially the deck and bar/lounge area by the lake. I appreciate the host and their timely responses.

Invasion of Privacy/Undisclosed Cameras

As a VRBO owner it is hard to write this review. I know they can affect your business, but renters need to be aware. The rental had undisclosed security cameras everywhere; mainly outside, but inside was a panel in the kitchen with a camera. We didn’t know it had a camera until day 2 of our 3 day stay. The Host said it would only record/take photos if the alarm went off or someone tried to disarm it, yet we could see pictures of multiple families stored in it. This is creepy, didn't sit well with us, and goes against VRBO guidelines. I contacted VRBO with our concerns and instead of enforcing their own rules, they told us to contact the owner and maybe he would give some money back! That wasn’t the point VRBO! We are extremely disappointed with your response! Future renters need to be aware they may be recorded, but the Host responded he would now be removing the control panel inside. Also, we set the A/C at one temp and it would reset itself higher about an hour later. The master bedroom didn't have a window, so we roasted. One morning it was 82 degrees, yet we had it set at 70! The Host said it was in learning mode and should be fine now. That wasn't the case. We set it to 70 at night by 3am it would be back to 76 or higher. Interesting that the camera is located right beneath the thermostat! There are 4 TVs, but only 2 worked consistently. There are no instructions for operating anything and communication with Host is only through email- very frustrating!

About the host

Fun loving, family oriented guy. Love outings with friends and family or a casual drink at home with my wife. Im close enough where if you need anything we can help out but won’t be around micro managing. Hope you have a great time in the DMV and please feel free to let us know how we can do better.
