This was a very nice house! Everything was clean and location is in a very convenient area we were a couple minutes from wal mart and had plenty of food options nearby! The outside area is very nice, we had fun playing pool and hanging out by the fire pit! Communication was great anytime I had a question or needed help I was given a response immediately! This was a great stay for my family!

The instructions given by Evolve on how to get into the property were incorrect. Also the refrigerator was not working but the owner provided us with two mini refrigerators during our stay which was helpful. Lovely yard and location.

We stayed at this Antioch home for 39 days. So peaceful ! We loved sitting out by the water every morning and every evening.
The house was great for us, was just my husband and myself but our adult grandchildren did come visit often as they live close by.
The house was clean and very comfortable, my only complaints would be the kitchen is not well stocked for a long stay. We had plenty of glasses, dinnerware etc but nothing to actually cook a meal with as far as mixing bowl or serving dishes or any bakeware. I did bring this up to the owner and he had a valid point that most don’t stay for a month or
Longer.
We did use the grill often and I just borrowed cooking dishes from my family that was nearby and we got along fine.
The owner is very receptive to any needs or questions.
We had a very nice stay in this home .
Pros: The backyard, patio, location and ambiance was exceptional! A true delight- peaceful, well kept/stocked, and huge. The weather was perfect and made it a wonderful weekend. Access to the Chain of Lakes was incredibly easy for us. Patio furniture, lighting and fire pit were all in great condition. Interior of house was nicely redone, and despite the bunk bed room being smaller than depicted, everything was clean and well-kept/updated.
Cons: The kitchen had issues. The sink would not drain and left the house smelling quite stinky; the garbage disposal did not work, and the kitchen itself was very poorly stocked. And when we arrived on site, all of the garbage from the previous tenant was left about the driveway, bringing bugs and stench in the week's heat. The property manager was able to get the situation taken care of the following morning, but it was an unfortunate greeting to what was an otherwise beautiful property. Luckily, because we had beautiful weather and spent the entire time outside, the cons of the poorly working kitchen weren't too big of a deal to us.
From the Owner: "Hello Elizabeth, thank you for your feedback, we are sorry about the garbage situation, the kitchen was fixed right after your stay, please let us know if you wish to come back and we will offer you a discount for the kitchen issues.
Best regards."
Knowing this was a newer listing, we weren’t exactly sure what to expect on arrival. However, once we were there, we loved every aspect!
Plenty of room to spread out both inside and out. Inside: Open kitchen, dining area and family room was extremely functional for multiple people all enjoying time together. Each room had its own individual temperature control, which was beneficial for the wide range of needs for our family. Every comfort was attended to inside, including TVs in all rooms with plenty of viewing options for all ages.
Outside: Multiple areas to relax and have some fun. Large fenced in yard so dog could run freely, flat for yard games and separate living space with pool table which made for relaxing escape. A bunch of nice touches for kids and adults alike. But our favorite was the peacefulness of the property as boat traffic was minimal, view was great, used the dock a number of times to tie up and take a break from being on the lakes with 24’ pontoon, fire-pit was out near water and very spacious. There were a few things that owner was still working on but that’s to be expected and is actually appreciated as they continue to upgrade the experience.
Communication with owner was exceptional. Obviously, we thoroughly enjoyed the property and would highly recommend !
