We really enjoyed the cabin. It was well furnished with everything you need for a nice vacation. We had fun playing cornhole with our friends after a day on DHL. We have a 21 foot boat and had no issues getting in and out of the driveway. However, some vehicles drive fast on the road out front. There’s a hill on the road so be cautious pulling out. The road to the Cove Creek ramp is pretty much one lane so the next day we decided to use the Sunset Marina ramp. The only issue we had with the cabin was there were no top sheets on any of the beds. We found some in the closet wadded up in a bag so we were not sure if they were clean. Also, the Roku remote in the living room did not have any batteries but I found that the remote in the bedroom would operate the TV in the family room. All and all is was a great place and we plan on staying here again.

We were both so impressed with how beautiful the home, yard and surrounding area is. Very nice house, fully equipped and decorated nicely. The owners were responsive. The property was very clean and neat. We wish we had stayed much longer. Everything was perfect for us and the dogs.

We arrived on 9/22/22 and left 8:40 A.M. this morning 9/25. The first representation of this property is the front door. This front door is dirty, scuffed up and in need of cleaning or paint, that's strike one. I get the key and open the door, and immediately smell an odor, not a pleasant one, smells like wet dog to me, strike two. Next I move to the refrigerator to put my food in, and the fridge is dirty, not just a little dirty, when was the last time time this fridge was washed out? strike three, and also the kitchen trash can black liner stinks, I wiped it out but it needs a good scrubbing with bleach, and also the cabinet above the microwave left side door is very loose. I then go to the living room, lift up the cushions on the couch and chair, and see what you find, dirt, hair and nuts, and couch smells, strike four. Bathrooms are okay. We gave our son the master bedroom, no mattress pad cover on queen bed, so we took the bedroom with the twin beds. The carpet in that room is filthy, spots and stains all over. I would not walk barefoot on that carpet at all. The owner would be wise to remove carpets in both bedrooms, and put in vinyl floor, strike five. Security camera's are not for the renters safety, it for the owner to watch & listen to everything you say and do. They see everyone that comes and goes. I really don't like being watched and listened to the entire time I am outside. The owner is probably well aware of my complaints, because I shoot straight and don't pull any punches, so they heard everything I said. I'll give credit where credit is due. The cottage is in a great location, peaceful, quiet, comfortable beds, and I very much enjoyed sitting on the front porch. The kitchen is well equipped with everything we needed and stocked well. I read the other reviews, and they talked about how clean it was, well I guess their clean and my clean is entirely two different things. I'm very picky when it comes to being clean, and this cottage needs a good cleaning, and I'm not talking about just hitting the high spots. It is a very pretty place, I'm sorry I couldn't give you a better rating. I was hoping that we could find a good place to stay, because we come down there quite often. I was raised down there, so I know the country, and we're coming back end of next month for a work day at our family cemetery, but will look elsewhere.
