Lake front property
It was very nice, excellent location, there was alot of stuff that was not there that was shown on the add, no jet skies, no boat no water trampoline, and didn't know that we had to do laundry, if you don't have a boat it is not for you

Location is Best Thing
Unfortunately, the best feature of the property is location - if you have a boat. The property served our purposes, however, many items in listing were not what we found on arrival. House is more rustic and dated vs “fully renovated.” Rooms are full of unnecessary furniture and bedding was dingy, mattresses old, and pillows were disgusting (bring you own!) Kitchen drawers full of junk and food left in the fridge/freezer. House was not very clean and we had mice (chipmunks?) eating the food on the counter (no other place to store it in cupboards.) There were fewer bedrooms/beds than listed. No real place to put tents. No way there is sleeping for 40! Sleeping cabins did not have air conditioning as stated and the bunk beds were very uncomfortable. Second shower is located in a shed which was not clean at all - cobwebs, dead bugs, dirty floor. Jet skis were not available, kayaks took on water. Exterior not as clean and green as pictured. Lots of junk piled up everywhere. We did not feel property lived up to the listing. Too bad, because with some upkeep and investment, this place could be amazing.

Boat Access Property on the lake
The house is in an incredible location. It is on a point jutting out a bit into the lake and only a five minute boat ride from the town. This is very convenient. The owner is also very personable. However, you really need your own boat if you’re going to ride around on the lake. Jerry was nice enough to include a boat in the rental but it was for getting to town and back and wouldn’t be something you would cruise the lake in or pull a skier. As far as cleanliness goes, it wasn’t very clean. There were chipmunk droppings around the house. The general state of the property is not clean. To be fair, we were the first rental of the season and this might account for some of the lack of cleanliness. Jerry also mentioned that he was having someone come to take care of the chipmunks after we left. In addition, I feel the listing is misleading on VRBO. It is a three bedroom house that sleeps six. There are two small cabins that sleep another four people in each cabin for a total of twelve people. There are two bathrooms; one in the main house and one in a separate building that is nicer than an outhouse (there is running water and a shower). I’m not sure how anyone would sleep 24-40 people comfortably as suggested on the listing. You would be sleeping in a tent, going to the bathroom in the woods and there wouldn’t be any hot water for a shower. The jet skis were not in working condition and could not be rented. The rowboat is not in working condition, and the two person kayak takes on water as you paddle around. There is no cabin cruiser boat to rent either. We had a great time as two families with a total of 9 people. I think it could be a great place to rent if it was cleaned up more, the boats and jet skis were either in working condition or removed from the listing so that expectations were appropriate, and you have your own boat.

All had a wonderful time
Thank you Jerry for the wonderful week. There was something for everyone to do. From the oldest to youngest, all got along super well and were busy from dawn to dusk. Playing in the water, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, etc. Your kitchen is super stocked with every gadget anyone would need. Don't ever sell your place it is truly a prime spot on CDA Lake!

We thoroughly enjoyed our sixtieth anniversary family get-together at Carson Point.
This was our sixtieth wedding anniversary family get-together. Carlson Point is special and Jerry is a great host. The house and cabins are well equipped and maintained. The view is 270 degrees and spectacular. We even had a daily air show from a bald eagle. Everyone hated to leave. Ah, memories!
