Very nice cabin like feel, beautiful view. Clean house. Enjoyed the small town vibe. Was the perfect place to “get away”.

The location right on Lake Pleasant and the view of the lake and mountains was amazing. The children really enjoyed swimming in the lake and adults made use of the kayak and canoe. We loved having a piano. The home also had many interesting and unusual decorations.We did contact the host about some electrical issues. He was aware of them and said he has had trouble getting an electrician. The host was eager to make our stay comfortable. There were plenty of fans to use to circulate the air. Website pictures made the refrigerator look bigger than it was. Also, another refrigerator was in pictures so we assumed it was for our use, but when we got there it had a sign on saying “Owner’s refrigerator.” There were 9 of us there for almost a week so refrigerator space was at a premium. (There was a small beverage refrigerator in the kitchen that was not pictured)Enjoyed fire pit with available wood to make smores

This was a great stay for us. House is as-described, a peaceful lakehouse with water front view and access within a couple of steps of the back door. You can sit outside and enjoy the view of the lake and mountains and observe ducks and loons swimming. The owners allowed use of all their kayaks, life jackets and water/sand toys, which was great for kids and adults. Plenty of space for our group of 5 adults and two kids and could have fit many more. Kitchen has all the utensils, pots, pans, plates, cups, cutlery we needed, and they had staples like salt, sugar, pepper and other spices. It’s clear the owners are very thoughtful people and have gone to great lengths to make their home a welcoming and cozy getaway for visitors. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to visit again, as it was pretty much the perfect place for us. One item to note is we did try to text the property manager at the number listed twice and did not get a response, though we realize now that not everyone texts and maybe their phone only takes calls, so it’s likely our error in not just calling, not a big deal. Wasn’t an emergency in any way, and the owners left thorough instructions, but just a note for other renters that you likely need to call the property manager instead of text if you have questions. Also, we did not request the hot spot as listed as an option (no WiFi), but we didn’t need it because cell reception was great at the house.

Despite a couple rainy days, it was such a wonderful experience! Plenty of room in this gorgeous home, very clean and comfortable beds. Excellent location right on the water just steps away to the sandy beach, long waterfront. Canoe, kayaks on the property are an excellent addition!
Also great communication with the owners and the evolve team. Thanks for everything!
