July 4th Getaway

This property worked out great for our family - 7 adults & 2 kids. We rented a pontoon boat and drove it right up to the dock so everyone could get on. The location is very easy to get to and felt very safe & secure.

Very relaxing

It was very relaxing. We loved the kayaks and would’ve spent more time out on the water if the weather cooperated. There is plenty to do in the area. The host was very responsive& helpful. The kids loves having their own room. Everything was very clean. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Lovin the Lake House!

We had an amazing time in the yellow house on Lake Hamilton. This house has everything thing you need to create lasting memories. The beds were super comfy after a day on the lake. We love to grill and were so excited to have a gas grill so we could cook outdoors while enjoying the beautiful view. The hosts were amazing and so accommodating. They made us feel like we were at home.

Lacking a few things

Definitely needs to replace the microwave and possibly add cable. Outdoor grill was too nasty to use. Otherwise, it was a pleasant experience.

GREAT Family getaway!

Frank and Lin are very attentive and respond quickly. Property has 4 bedrooms/3 bath with space for all of us. Kiddos enjoyed fishing off the dock- caught a few (but we’re disappointed they could swim off the dock). Family game night was perfect on the large kitchen table! Clean & VERY comfortable beds. Only complaint- Ended up being overpriced for what it included. Although advertised as sleeps 10, this place does charge per person. For an accurate price, don’t do what I did and add 1 adult, 2 children (originally just 4 adults). That change was a costly $180 at check-in.

Liked: Check-in, communication
Disliked: Location
Communication with the host was great, and the beds were very comfortable. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience fell short of expectations. The house had a very strong smell of mildew or mold that made it hard to relax. There were no bath mats in the bathrooms so we had to walk around with wet feet after showering, and the toiletries provided were left over from a casino hotel – which felt out of place. We also noticed mold around the downstairs bathtub.The outdoor area wasn’t welcoming either. The seat cushions were dirty, and although there were replacements available, it wasn’t something we wanted to deal with while on vacation. The listing mentioned kayaks, but they were so dirty that no one wanted to use them – and the stairs leading down to the water were broken, making it unsafe to get in or out anyways. Overall, it felt like we wanted to be anywhere but the house.

The house itself was decent most properties around it look like junkie dumpy trash like The Hills Have Eyes and whoever their property manager is doesn't know how to run an air conditioning thermostat then has the nerve to call the client a liar and continuously text until 11:00 at night which is completely unprofessional sending cry face emojis whining about what's going to come out of their paycheck just never had an experience like this also only left one roll of toilet paper told us we were on our own for the rest we weren't informed that the paddle boat was broken until 10 minutes before we arrived even though I rented 3 months ago so yeah not my ideal stay I won't be back hopefully they get me management and things can go a little betterThey also left half empty wine and a bunch of bait rotting in the fridge never had anyone do that I've never had a thermostat at a location with a lockbox on it just not ideal

Very nice stay on Short Notice! Thank you Linn!

Was able to book this on short notice! Super location to amenities and short driving distance to town! Linn worked with me to figure out the television / remotes situation as they were not all televisions. Some only could be used with a DvD player. I was able to find the serenity I so needed doing my two day stay! Only drawback was the remotes could've been cleaned/dusted a bit. They were dusty. There was garbage on the floor between stove & cupboard. I may have given four stars for "cleanliness of property & expected a bit care to detail had I not requested the property on short notice! Otherwise who can complain? Great people to stay with for certain!
