We had a great stay. It's a nice, big house. There's plenty of room for everyone, inside and outside

Nice house steps from the beach! Loved it!

This was our second time staying at Bob’s Lakehouse! It is a perfect distance right to the beach at the end of his driveway! The house is spacious. Bob is very easy to get in contact with, upon arrival the washing machine was broke, and he had another one delivered asap. I will tell you not to use Google maps as your GPS because for some reason the directions are wrong. I would definitely use the maps app that comes with Apple iPhone or a different one. As soon as you get to the end of his road, the beach will be directly in front of you and it almost looks like there’s no way to go, and then you will bang a left down this narrow driveway past the blue house and his house is tucked right away! We stayed for nine nights this time instead of seven. Santa’s village was roughly 2 hours away, but it wasn’t bad to drive back-and-forth from the same day. Majority of the trip was leisurely, spending a lot of time in the lake and going for walks through the neighborhood. We even went kayaking. This is the perfect place to stay to unwind and disconnect from your day-to-day life. This is our fourth time staying on this lake and the second time staying at Bob’s, we will be back next summer!

It was advertised that there was AC, contacted owner a week prior to confirm type of ac and was told one window unit and fans. So, we loaded up an extra window unit in Virginia before we left and glad we did. Upon arrival the house was 90 degrees, no ac unit, no fans running and the 2 working fans were both noisy and rattled during use.Dehumidifier in the basement worked periodically, had to reset it multiple times.The closets had old sheets and a mattress in it that smelled horrible. We went to my brothers house in Epsom and borrowed a second ac unit and three working fans.After swimming all day on day 2 we found that the hand written instructions on how to jimmy rig the start button on the washer were useless because the start button came off in my wife’s hand. So we loaded up our wet clothes and went to my brother’s to do laundry. The dryer works but sounds like it’s coming a part.We persevered through the first and second days and enjoyed the rest of our stay but only because we supplied our own AC units, fans and wash machine usage.When I contacted the owner about issues he simply stated that the ac must have stolen and he apologized for the dirty house upon arrival and offered to refund my clean fee.I would not recommend this rental in the summer as it is very hot without fans and ac.There seems to be little attention to detail by the preparatory team, as there were no toilet paper in the downstairs bathroom and dead bugs in the shower.
