Spacious house for the five of us on dead end street. Good fishing.
Loved the use of the kayaks, and swim pad.
Great fire pit and allowing us to purchase extra wood on site was a great convenience!

We enjoyed our time on the water. We kayaked and jumped on the trampoline. This was a huge hit with my 9-year-old daughter. Unfortunately, there weren't any youth sized life vests which would have been nice to have especially with how family friendly it is. I reached out about this and was told they would work on getting one to me during our stay but that never happened, and no one followed up. It also appeared difficult to get ahold of anyone via text or email. I had to call in order to get a response. The room with the bunk beds had an outlet that wasn't screwed to the wall so there were exposed wires. The fuse blew a few times in the kitchen when the microwave and air fryer ran at the same time. There's no washer and dryer, which isn't clearly highlighted in the property description. This was somewhat of a challenge since we are on the water and have wet bathing suits and we stayed for 4 days. We enjoyed how quiet it was and loved the firepit. The beds were comfortable.
