The house itself is as described. Lovely wooded setting and a great fireplace inside. The hot tub was set to 85 so I would recommend checking that upon arrival so you can heat it up for use (takes a few hours). The additional registration and contracts required to rent the place are not reflective of the listing (no dogs etc) and they attempted to charge us an additional $200 for “late registration”. We only booked a couple days ahead so I’m sure this is just automation gone left, but worth being aware of.

Communicative hosts, peaceful surroundings, comfortable beds. Close to waterparks. Great for a family of 4. I wish I didnt have to pay $200 to register with the HOA (but this is only for last minute), just felt like I didn't really use anything in the community in order to have to pay the fee but this is properly out of the hosts hands. Heating system is also a little outdated but it works it's purpose. Overall the house was very nice and we had a great time there. no major issues.

Lovely house in picturesque surroundings. The firepit and back-yard deck were great places to hang-out and relax. Just a couple of negatives that made our stay less than ideal: - the hot-tub had not been cleaned / new water refreshed ahead of our stay. When we lifted off the covers, there was an overpowing smell, which was even more pungent when the jets were turned on; - the arcade machine was broken, which was paritcularly disaapointing for the kids, as that was what had sold them on the house; - while it's part of the post-booking arrangements, I felt that it should have been made clearer up front that there is a $20 / person / day charge for use of the community facilities, including access to the public lake. When you have 10 people staying, across 4 days, that adds up to a significant amount.
