Really enjoyed our stay. Rental was clean & comfortable. We enjoyed the games & comfortable furniture for relaxing & movie watching. Quite nice that they had coffee, creamer & sugar offered for the machines also (which was great because we had run low on our coffee supplies & arrived too late to grab more!) It was a lovely stay in a beautiful home & setting.

The property and surroundings were beautiful. Neighbors were quiet, little to no traffic could be heard. Favorites about the property were the billiard table/game area, the movie room, and the kitchen. Eating at the Watersview restaurant was amazing due to the lake views. Overall it was a peaceful trip/stay. As a previous guest stated, the listing can be a little misleading if you’re not reading the full description (which is my own fault at the end of the day). The listing states “entire home” but the property is shared with the owners whom occupy the upper level. Nearly did not show up for the reservation after realizing this detail, but didn’t want to feel like I was wasting money. The mindset with making the reservation was privacy and solitude by the lake but it did not feel that way. Main bedroom’s mattress made it difficult to sleep due to lack of firmness. Driveway is very steep. Ceiling fan in one of the rooms was noisy and ultimately led to an early departure.

The home was beautiful and very clean. There is a 10pm to 8 am quiet time which made it difficult to enjoy time with fellow guests. It is also a split level home with a stair case and door leading to upstairs. This made it difficult to relax because it gave the feeling of being unsafe. The parking was also inconvenient and located at the very top of a slanted driveway. I have a foot injury and it made it extremely difficult to come and go from thw property. Also couldnt swim off the dock at the lake.

We had a wonderful stay! Lower level was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for a relaxing visit. Movie room and pool table were standout amenities. A few notes for future guests: the driveway is very steep and may be difficult for elderly guests or those with mobility concerns. The “Bedroom 3/Nook” is best suited for a child; it is very small and the door does not fully open due to the bed, making it tight for adults. As this is a lower-level unit, normal footsteps and furniture movement from upstairs can be heard at times. We also noticed a camera at the top of the stairs leading to the main home. We assume it is for security and hope it was not active during our stay, but guests may want to be aware. Overall, we had a great experience and really enjoyed our stay. Cleanliness, amenities, and entertainment space made it a fun visit.
