    This property is older and pretty dated which we kind of expected from the pictures but it could be good with some updates as it has nice proximity to the lake. It is in need of a good deep cleaning though. View of the water is obscured by dirty windows unfortunately. Most of the windows also didn’t have any kind of window covering so very little privacy. Prior reviews mentioned bugs and that could be due to the lakeside door needing to be repaired or replaced since there is a large gap at the bottom. The beds weren’t very comfortable and one of the people in our group just slept in the recliner. The a/c worked great though and we were happy there were plenty of ceiling fans. The owner made the check in process easy and I didn’t bother them with our concerns because we just decided to deal with it and do a little cleaning ourselves. This was a girls trip and our group prefers comfortable beds and accommodations that appear to have been cleaned recently in preparation for guests and that is difficult to assess in the listing pictures so we were disappointed when we arrived.

    Manager's Response:

    Karen, thank you for your detailed review and for choosing to stay at our property. We appreciate your feedback and would like to address your comments:

    -We understand that the property is older and may appear dated to some guests. We take pride in providing accurate representations of our property through professional photos and detailed descriptions in our listing. We believe it retains a certain charm that many of our guests appreciate.
    -The cabin was professionally cleaned the day before your arrival. We regret if this did not meet your expectations. The windows are designed to offer unobstructed views of the lake, and most guests enjoy the natural light and scenery.
    -The second-story windows open out to a deck, ensuring privacy as it is not possible for anyone on the lake to see inside. Many guests prefer the unobstructed view of the lake.
    -The lakeside environment can attract bugs, especially if the outside lights are left on, as noted in our welcome notice. We will inspect the lakeside door for any needed repairs to minimize gaps.
    -While we try to accommodate all guests' comfort, we're sorry the mattress didn't meet your preferences. We have four queen-size beds, and many guests have complimented their comfort. We are sorry to hear that your group found them uncomfortable.
    -We are pleased to hear that the air conditioning and ceiling fans met your expectations.

    We take great pride in the service and accommodations we provide, as reflected in the numerous five-star reviews we have received from past guests. We are committed to maintaining the high standards that have earned us such positive feedback and continuously strive to enhance the experience of all our guests. Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and we look forward to the opportunity to exceed your expectations in the future.

    Very calm and quiet neighborhood. Lake is right in the back yard. Loved sitting on the porch and just watching the water especially when the sun is rising or setting. Very perfect for a quiet weekend fishing trip.
