Wonderful Home on Sand Lake w/ Expansive Porch!

Reviews

• Great Family Getaway

  5/5

  My family and I had a great stay! They walk out down to the lake was far, but not gradual decline. We have 2 under two and they both had a great time trying to skip rocks into the water. My wife and I found the home to be larger enough for three sets of family members and great place for dinners and fish fry's. Would deffently come back.

• Cabin on a resort on Sand Lake

  3/5

  We really had a great time with our family. We came from 5 hours away. In the pictures it looked like a huge beach but when we got there it was a shared beach with a resort which was a surprise to us .

  People were cutting through the yard which gave us zero privacy .

  The master bedroom doesn’t have a curtain on the window and can see through the fireplace into the living room.

  The water in the bathtub was pretty rusty and left stains when we washed laundry

  Ran out of toilet paper

  Leeches in the lake but very clear and warm

  No bedroom door on a bedroom downstairs or lamps

  Pretty dusty with cob webs all over

  Fishing was good !

  Electricity went out for 4 hours one night but wasn’t their fault.

  Only 3 lawn chairs and no beach towels or sand toys. Couldn’t find roasting sticks

  Dishwasher needed minor some repairs

  Location in the middle of no where. Very little phone signal

  Lots of firewood

  Our puppy loved the built in dog house

  We really made the best out of our time together at the cabin. Just very minor things but when you pay a lot you expect to have some of these minor basic necessities at a VRBO. Thank you though for opening up your cabin . We did indeed have a lot of great memories to remember.

  We rented a pontoon a day and that was amazing !

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Dirk, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  - The listing does state that our vacation home is a log cabin with an open floor concept, but we are sorry if this caught you off guard. We encourage guests to thoroughly review the listing before booking, to ensure they find the perfect vacation home for their needs
  - The ceiling in the bathroom is finished with knotty pine wood and a clear stain. The bedroom downstairs does have a privacy curtain. Our water softener also works properly.
  - All of the windows are supposed to open and close, however, based on your feedback, new window opening cranks have been ordered. We do offer a soaker tub and the jets work well but we apologize that they were not exactly like you’d prefer.
  - Evolve sets industry-competitive prices based on our property and the surrounding area and they use a dynamic pricing algorithm, which can fluctuate depending on the time of year or holiday season. We apologize if you didn't feel it was a good value.
  - While we do regret our home was not up to your expectations, we are happy to share that no issues were reported by the guests who stayed the following weekend.
  - Thank you for sharing your review. Your feedback assists us in understanding our guests' perspectives and improving wherever possible.

• Family vacation

  5/5

  We had a great time for our family vacation. The lake was almost empty every day so the kids had a blast tubing. House was great. The only negative was the master doesn’t have walls all the way to the ceiling. If we didn’t have teenagers who wanted to stay up later than us it wouldn’t have been a problem though.
