It is a rustic simple house. It did provide comfort, air conditioning, and plumbing. Household supplies were plentiful. The yard is nice and has trees. We enjoyed the firepit too. My Grandson was happy to have netflix.

Great area for a vacation

A quick drive to surrounding towns, and located close to a Dollar General store for all your last minute needs. We never found the private beach, but we were happy to use the public beach in town. Having the washer/dryer was a life saver!

Cute place with great air conditioning and comfy beds.

We really enjoyed the cottage with the exception of the uneven floors, but will get back to that.The place is cute,the air works very well, beds are comfortable. Everything you need is there including dog leashes, towels and chairs for the beach. The only problem was the uneven floors. It was a bit like a fun house. We had thought about bringing my father, but if had, he might have fallen. Everything else was great! If in the area, I'd think about staying again.

Cute little cabin in a good location

Cute cabin, had everything we needed. It’s listed as rustic which is accurate but I feel like it was partially updated and had nice touches like beach decor, AC, wifi and tons of channels on the Tv but with a Cabin feel. Beach was awesome and just a short walk across the street. Dog friendly was a huge bonus for us. Will definitely come back.

Thank you for your time to leave a review. As I let you know we have one more rental and the cottage will be taken off Vrbo. People have zero clue on what it takes to do this. I will gleefully enjoy my cottage and all it’s flaws moving forward;)

The place was decorated cute, bedding on 1 bed was dirty with hair, the refrigerator had to be washed out, the shower was very nice, the porches had to be cleaned before we could enjoy them, the grill was dirty, the place needs alot of work. Tv was nice, good wifi. doors dont shut good

Cute house

Rustic is the keyword. Uneven floor/foundation makes walking awkward, especially for older folks. But they have a very well stocked kitchen and lots of extras, including coffee pods for the Keurig! Washer and dryer is a great plus. A welcome manual would help with info about TV, hot water, beach parking and WIFI. A little TLC would go a long way to fix this place up but we had a good stay. Property owner is quick to respond.

Cute, serviceable cabin near beaches

We'd really like to give this property the highest rating. The owner is very responsive and friendly, and the property is well equipped with modern surfaces, awesome coffee, and a great TV. But...the house had not been cleaned by our arrival time (soon remedied) and the on-demand hot water system is so eccentric that showers were an adventure. We also could never find the toaster, and the beach was more than a short walk. There is a state park beach nearby that is even better than the private beach referred to in the description, and the town center of Lexington is a delight. If we knew that the hot water system was tended to, we would consider returning. We did have a nice, private retreat there.

The most horrible experience with an owner that Ive ever had, with over decades of using this VRBO service.My guests, and family left very quickly due to constant harassment and threats from tbe owner.Owner extremily upset about visiting family using the place to meet and make plans. Very upset that family visiting used the toilets.Threatened to call the police.We made no noise, left no mess, and had no complaints from any neighbors.He complained we had too many cars with outdoor equipment! This rental is near to Lake Huron, one of the great lakes, and yes! We got jetskis parked in front.All these seem to be lefit rule breaking. Yup. I left rhe rental a day early, let the owner know that we were all out and he continued to threaten me with police.I believe these are sick, scary people.

I'm genuinely sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your experience. However, I feel it’s important to provide context for future guests. This rental has clear rules regarding occupancy, parking, and use of the property—rules that are in place to ensure safety, compliance with local regulations, and consideration for neighbors. Unfortunately, during your stay, those guidelines were repeatedly disregarded. There were significantly more vehicles (8) and visitors (20)than permitted, and it appeared the home was being used as a gathering spot for people not listed on the reservation. I reached out several times to address these concerns respectfully and remind you of the rental agreement. At no point were you harassed or threatened. In fact, after ongoing violations, VRBO support urged me to contact local authorities and have your group escorted from the property around 10:00 PM. I chose not to take that step because I didn’t want to leave your family without a place to stay for the night. Unfortunately, after allowing you to remain, the situation escalated. A bonfire was started and the group continued partying into the early morning hours. We have video evidence of unregistered guests stumbling around the property at 2 a.m., which raised serious safety and liability concerns. I take pride in offering a peaceful, respectful environment for all guests. While I regret that this was not a good fit, I have a responsibility to enforce the house rules and protect the property, neighbors, and future guests.

3 Day Get Away

Property is in great location with easy access to Lexington, Shopping and golf. Property is nice but cottage is in need of some repairs. Foundation seems to have shifted and cottage is not square. Was not concerned that it was going to fall off the foundation but doors were hard to close and open at times because things were not squared off. If you want a cute little cottage in a great location then this one is for you. If you want high end and everything perfect then keep scrolling. We loved the area and for a few days it is absolutely fine. We will book again.

Thank you for letting us know about the stove. I will get it repaired or replaced right away. I am sorry that the minute drive to the water was too far. We enjoy being on the other side of m25. It allows us the keep the prices for your stay down and we really like the privacy.

Disgusting. It should be condemned

There was a gas smell from the dryer. Lucky me i smell everything. I had to go and buy lysol and cloths to clean. The outside front and back porch were so dirty i could not sit on either porch. I could not cook on the stove because that was filthy. I was very disappointed and my teenage granddaughter couldnt believe how it smelled so bad. I going to callthe City of Lexington and let them know plus I wish to have some money back I remain. Suzanne

This was text message between this guest and myself… I understand that you're upset. So am I. Your original date was in June. You tried to back out, I said sorry no refunds but out of my own kindness I let you reschedule for no extra fee to a prime part of the following month. You came, you saw, you left 14hrs early and you want a refund??? Was I hard to get ahold of. Did I miss a phone call. Listen renting cottages isn't for everyone. This quest is someone you should stay away from at all cost.

Not as advertised

We arrived to dirty sheets that I washed since they had a stackable set there. Daily battle with hornets and wasps (flying in/out through the front and back door). But the most disturbing thing was after finally checking my phone I read “I see you have arrived.” along with “I turned off the cameraS.” Because of that my husband checked for any other cameras, just in case. In addition to these things, there’s tree roots and stumps all over the back yard (hubby tripped over one), the cabin itself is tilted, bathroom door will not close all the way probably because of that. We stayed because I brought cleaning supplies with us, I was able to wash the bedding and we needed the getaway. Otherwise I would have contacted Mark immediately for a refund. Do yourself a favor and just look elsewhere!! Plenty of cabins for rent in this beautiful area that are “as advertised....”!!

Cute Living Space ... But Disappointed

The living/dining areas were cute - but here's the rub .... - Tried to use the oven, it set off the fire alarm - The stove only has 2 burners that work- the larger one (that worked) was bent and the pan wouldn't set straight on it. - The refrigerator froze much of the food we brought. - The couch was broke on one end (though usuable) - The gas fireplace was great ... when it stayed lit (a lot of the time, just the pilot light be on) - The grill .... well, let's just say it's a good thing we didn't need it. Looked like it was falling apart and was full of leaves. Overall - it's a good thing that we didn't plan to cook meals at the house, that would've been a complete disaster. Many things were just run down and the smell of whatever disinfectant that was used was oppressive. I guess "rustic" was not about the decor. Overall it wasn't awful, but we would never stay here again.

Thank you for letting me know about your concerns. The fireplace is actually a heater/furnace, once the room is at temperature it kicks off. I would of been happy to show you how to adjust it if you would of let me know while you were there. As far as the other items they will either be repaired or replaced immediately. I can’t fix something if I don’t know it’s broken. Thank you for your time and have a blessed day.
