Peaceful get away

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. The property was very peaceful. Exactly what we were wanting. We have two suggestions for future guests. 1. It would be more comfortable if the king sized bed had a bed frame instead of sitting directly on the floor. 2. Maybe use some ant bait in the patio. There was an abundance of ants.

the good and opportunity for this overnight stay

The lot was great. We couldn't ask for a better spot of land to visit. It was a quite area with beautiful views all the way around. The inside could use a bit of care. We expected rustic and that's one of the places charms. There were many positives such as a ping-pong table, plenty of sleeping space, and lots of television options. Opportunities included the bathroom and other areas could use a serious look. We didn't shower (we were only there overnight) due to the shower conditions. Grout scrubbing is definitely needed. Several easy fixes, such as a broken towel holder (hanging from plaster torn off wall) and safety issues (sidewalk lights broken with exposed metal, mice, and curtains with wasp nest in garage converted game area) would enhance the stay. Communication with owners was excellent and they are very pet friendly. They even had homemade canned vegetables and preserves you could purchase. Overall, the stay was comfortable. With a little light touches, it could be a great get-away space.

Our stay at lake and oaks was wonderful. The location of the house was nice, private, and peaceful. Fishing the lake was an added bonus. The house was clean and welcoming and we really didn't want to leave when the time came. We were close to Rend Lake for extra fishing and drove down to Garden of the Gods, Cave in rock, and giant city state park for a day trip. Communication with the host was easy and she answered any questions we had quickly, even checked in on us after some bad weather had passed through. The whole stay was a wonderful experience and we really hope to return someday.
