Unique Island Stay w/ Dock! Southwick Lake House

Location was great for what we rented the house for. Barbara was great. She responded right away and was very pleasant to speaks with on the phone. -Hot weekend to not have great AC units. -Bathroom shower upstairs wall had stains or just not cleaned well, hair elastic left in shower. -Back deck and steps to dock were very sketchy, not used. -long walk from the parking lot up a hill to the house, not great steps from path to the front of the house.

The place felt primitive and a little antiquated but did have some charm as the expectations weren’t high. Was refunded cleaning fees because the cleaning day was missed. Construction debris in fire pit and underneath deck outside was a little off putting. Some glass pieces in the vicinity of the same area. The exterior could use continued love. It didn’t bother us, but from the parking lot, across the bridge, & up the hill to the place could be a hike for some. There is a smooth concrete path up the hill. I would not recommend walking up the laid cinder block steps to the left. The downstairs bedroom had a portable air conditioner that worked well, but wasn’t vented to the outside, so it blew hot exhausted air back into the room. I deep cleaned the house’s Keurig as it had dirt and other things in the water well. The views are excellent. The fire pit area has a lot of potential. Residual trash was left prior to us in the trash bins by the door that brought some smell and a few flies.
