The host Dennis was very nice and had good communication. The price was just right, it was affordable and not terribly expensive, which i liked. The location was ideal too, I had rented this to be able to attend a family reunion and found that the location was convenient and easily accessible. I would definitely recommend this place to others.

Only reason for 4star was we were there during a week of upper 90’s temperatures with heat index of 105-110 and the air wouldn’t keep bedrooms cool during night with doors closed. Also not all the jets on Hot Tub worked. Great place and host.

Had a small miscommunication on the check in but Dennis got us taken care of as soon as it was brought to his attention. The microwave had some issues that we also brought to his attention. We were able to get it going with a little bit of effort on our part. Place was nice and was described and depicted well, Sets pretty close to the road and you can hear traffic fairly prominent. The rooms are very bright even with the curtains closed. Very coinvent location for us was we visited Turkey Bay OHV.
