This house was so clean and had all of the room that we needed for a couple day adult getaway weekend, lakefront view and hot tub were nice bonuses as well
Property was immaculate, beautiful views, loved the touches of toys for kids! Even though we didn’t bring any this time I thought that was a nice touch. Gorgeous views! Already talking about coming back
The house was immaculate with attention to details to make it comfortable for guests. We had a question and management was very responsive. We did not have the best weather but still beautiful so I added a couple pics. Highly recommend.
Very nicely decorated, good kitchen with all needed supplies and amazing views! Living room is comfortable for 4 adults. Mattresses could use updating. House was very clean, but hot tub could use more effort.
Beautiful place - so clean and super cozy!Absolutely loved the views of the lake and enjoyed hanging out on the back patio (the hot tub was perfect too). The beds were super comfortable and the neighborhood quiet - slept like a baby the whole time there! Also loved all the attention to small details. We will definitely return in the warmer months to fully enjoy the outdoor amenities.
Renting this property was super easy, the manager was great to work with. The house is beautiful and was better than advertised. We enjoyed a fire with lake view and amazing star watching! We only wish we had planned to stay longer!
