The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
The Good
The views and the back porch are incredible
House is very nice, new appliances and a large fridge made meal prep easy
Beds were comfortable and there was lot of room
Beach was soft sugar sand
The Bad (some of these are outlined in the listing)
Not allowed to moor my boat to the dock to keep from having to beach it
Air conditioning worked great downstairs, but the upstairs was substantially warmer. We resorted to turning the temperature down and used a box fan setup at the bottom of the stairs to blow cold air up.
No great place to turn around or park a boat trailer, if you've got the skills to back it down the 100+ yard single lane driveway in the first place.
Cannot have any more than 10 people at the property at one time. We were going to have a family birthday, but too many of them RSVP'd so we had to move to my brother's house across the lake.
The Ugly
There are a lot of rules that come with this house, so make sure you read them closely and determine if it's a good fit. We did our best to follow them as closely as possible. But, within hours of departure, I was blindsided by and am now in a dispute over a hefty damage and incidentals fee over a set of “severe scratches” in the living room floor after my stay. I still have yet to see evidence of the “scratches,” their severity, and how he could prove they were caused by us. Most of the stay we weren't at the house because of the head count limit. Nice house for sure, but my worst vacation rental experience.
