Although we made the best of our stay at bungalow 3. Multiple wasps entered our cabin through the exterior considering they would just appear inside. Upon arrival 7/26 we noticed the microwave and kitchen outlets did not work causing inconvenience for planned lunch and dinners. I reported these issues right away and was told multiple times that someone would be out to address the problem and no one ever came over our entire stay. I was in contact with the number provided and although they were quick to respond there was never a solution. Also, the website clearly stated we had “pool and lake access” yet the only way to enjoy the “steps to the lake and pool” was to purchase access to the waterpark. The info to book this property is a little misleading. We called prior to arriving and were told yes there is a pool you have access to through booking yet when we arrived there was a different story. The string lights outside also did not work. Disappointed in the lack of response to our issues and misinformation and still have NOT been provided a solution. Considering I have a severe allergy and I had 4 young girls with me, the wasp situation was just NOT okay at all. Positive feedback: cleanliness, great beds, pillows and linens.

The listing is misleading. The "pool" is the Waterpark you have to pay extra for. There is no dishwasher, which was listed. There were no forks and spoons. I brought this to James' attention everyday but received no resolution. James responds quickly with apologies and he'll "address it with his team." But no resolution. I think this is a lower end experience for the money.
