Not very clean.

When we first checked in there was blood on the toilet seat. The floors were dirty and the floor in the bathroom feels like it is about to fall in next to the bathtub.

We’ve spoken with our cleaning team about your experience to ensure this does not happen again.

Musty smell as soon as you walk in. Bathroom sink drains slow. Firewood has cover but not used, had to buy my own. Windows dirty.electrical outlets hanging out. Paint peeling on kitchen counters. Outdoor light shines while using firepit.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property and had a great experience interacting with the owner. The property was exactly what we needed, and the owner was highly professional, providing prompt and positive communication throughout the process. The accommodations were ideal for our family. My children and grandchildren stayed with me, and the space was comfortable and easily accessible for our elderly parents, allowing them to step away from the lake activities to rest and escape the heat and weather as needed. The property is located in a rural setting, which may feel unfamiliar to those accustomed to city life. However, as a family with rural roots, we felt right at home and experienced no issues during our stay. The security lighting around the property was excellent, and there was ample space to ensure our entire family was comfortable. We highly recommend this property to friends and family and would gladly stay here again should the opportunity arise.
