We were surprised, and not in a good way
I want to be clear that the owner was nice, very accessible, and accommodating, and the house itself wasn't bad, although much smaller than we expected. Our biggest issue with this property was the neighborhood. We had 6 people staying at this property for our son's wedding and it was supposed to be a joyous weekend for us all. However, as we left the county road, onto unmaintained private roads, and then had to navigate massive craters in the road while passing run-down properties full of junk, stray dogs, and sketchy surroundings, we began to wonder if we were being pranked! This home is located in one of the most run-down neighborhoods we've ever been in, and we're country folk. There were random dogs jumping on us when we unloaded our cars, and lots of cats staring into our windows during the weekend. The drive up appeal to the house is not great either. Once we got there, we realized that the owner had shown no pictures of the outside of this cabin. It's a cabin, y'all. The views of the lake and sunset and the back yard and the pier on the water were all amazing. Once we got over the initial shock, we settled in for the weekend and it was a great house. It is definitely well appointed with all new stuff inside and we can tell the owner has put investment into it. All-in-all, we didn't get robbed and enjoyed the weekend, but just know what you're getting into.
