Woodruff Home w/ Lake Access & Pier, Near Town!

Reviews

• Wonderful Place and Town

  5/5

  My family of 7 adults, 1 child, and 2 dogs had a great time here. Such a perfect area to stay in. There's an absolutely awesome zoo not too far away that I highly recommend going to, and a meat store nearby that has anything you could want for grilling. The house itself was cleanly and had everything we needed. The beds were also very comfortable and the AC worked great. We enjoyed fishing and kayaking on the super private lake which was perfect for swimming as well. Thanks so much for letting us stay!

• Bring your own toilet paper but not your boat

  4/5

  Lake is not on the property.It is across the road, down a hillside with railroad for steps. 28 steps no railing.

  no rowboat as depicted in picture and no sandy beach. We could swim and fish off dock. The pier was new but not real secure and no railings. two plastic like kayaks but no lifejackets. My parents in their 70's and we would not have rented if we had known about the steep hillside to get to the lake. Do not recommend for small children or seniors. Unrealistic amount of toilet paper and garbage bags. Bring your own toilet paper and garbage bags.

  Host accused us of breaking the toilet the first night we were there. staff said the toilet was fine and wouldn't fix it. He finally sent a plumber over and never sent staff to deal with plumber. our vacation we had to deal with the plumber for several hours. We had only 1 toilet for our whole stay because the second toilet wasn't working and the plumber said it was an on going problem.

  The yard and fire pit were very nice. Lots of chairs and deck furniture. There are deer walking in the yard. Unfortunately there is also an airport that shares a fence with the back yard. There is a tree line so you don't see the airport but you hear the planes. The flight pattern takes them over the house. The kitchen amenities were nice. There is not tv service provided. The host we called, David, was rude. Refused to unlock the third bathroom after offering. We paid a lot of money for lake property with boat.

• Good stay

  3/5

  The home is beautiful and clean. The location is pretty far from town and you cannot see the water from the house. While our stay was overall very nice, we were disappointed that the grill was not working (although it was in the listing) and we needed to purchase a few additional items (like toilet paper for instance) because they did not provide enough.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Sara, we want our guests to arrive at a vacation home that is 100% ready for their stay, so we take your feedback seriously. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your review, and they wanted to share the following:
  
  - We were unaware that the propane grill needed maintenance, but we'll make sure it’s fully functional for future guests
  - We’re checking with our housekeeper to ensure that the proper amount of supplies, like toilet paper, is always provided
  
  We appreciate your feedback so we can continue to improve and help this homeowner provide guests with the 5-star service they are known for. We hope to host you again soon!
