Needs improvement
AC didn’t get below 75 the entire stay. It was 86 upon arrival (in JUNE) and took over 18 hours to get to 75 and wouldn’t cool down more than that. Air filters were filthy. Bugs and cobwebs throughout the house. Guest contact did not respond until we got the help center involved and still was very hard to communicate with. Besides that, the house was as pictured and we enjoyed our (very hot) stay. A little overpriced for practically camping, but the kids had fun!

AWFUL!!! Not as pictures or description claim!!!
Host is awful. Door wouldn’t open. Bugs & spiderwebs everywhere. The dock is in pieces and you cannot access the water, debris from the dock is all along the shoreline so no swimming there. The host is very rude and inaccessible. She promised me a 20% refund then just stopped replying. Horrible customer service. Charges you a.cleaning fee but wants you to do half the cleaning before you leave. Do not recommend!

Great Time
There was 5 adults and 2 kids (4, 11) and we had more than enough room. We caught quite a few fish from the dock. Everything was perfect and the communication was great. The pictures do not do this home justice. We will definitely be booking again.

Great house! Dock needs to be replaced.
House was very nice and well appointed. Has everything you need for a nice vacation. Neighborhood is quiet and view from the back porch is wonderful. The dock is very old and falling apart, plus infested with wasps. It needs to be replaced. The boat lift did work, but we didn't spend any time on the dock because of the comments above, which was disappointing. Would not stay here if dock time is important to you. But if just the house it's a very nice place.

Perfect!
Great location; close enough to town, far enough away - just right! The house is beautiful and well kept, nicely upgraded and comfortable with a terrific on-the-water view. Neighbors were very friendly, too! Thanks - we had a great, relaxing time!
