owner checked daily by text. great property

Phillip was very friendly and accommodating! Communication was excellent and he checked on our stay frequently and was available when we had an issue with the Wi-Fi. The house was very comfortable and cozy with plenty of space and amenities for our family. We enjoyed our trip and would stay again, given the opportunity. I would highly recommend!

Phillip was a great host. If I had a question, I reached out and he responded quickly. We enjoyed family time on the back deck, the front porch and the game room. A larger rental with 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths and one half bath. Great for a family get away.

Let me start with the positive points. The house was filled with just about everything you would need, as far as kitchen supplies, toilet paper, paper towels, dishsoap, etc. They, unlike a lot of other properties we've stayed at, provided all of that, which was very nice. The home was very close to the lake, and a quick drive to the boat launch. It is $5/day to launch or swim there. If you have a boat, I'd highly recommend bringing it, or you can rent one from the marina nearby. The lake is gorgeous once you start exploring it! We had lots of fun in the gameroom, and the view from the backporch was nice and relaxing. We had 7 adults, 3 kids, and a baby, and there was plenty of room for everyone to sleep. That being said, I must move on to the more "not so greats" about this home. If you came for a good night's sleep, you will most likely not be getting it here. Every single bed in the house was very hard, some in which you can fill the springs through the bed. It felt as though I was back at church camp. The king bed downstairs, had a little bit more relief than all of the others, but it was bad enough to not want to stay here again. Upon arrival, the upstairs was extremely warmer than the rest of the house. I contacted the owner, and he suggested I turn the air down to 65° to see if it cools down, and if it didn't, he would have someone come look at it in the morning. Once I turned it down, after a while, it cooled down quite a bit. Except, the upstairs bedroom that has the ensuite bathroom. It was like a sauna in that room, no matter what we did. My daughter, her husband, and our 9 month old grandaughter slept in that room, because it was larger and had direct access to a bathroom. They said it was miserable all night long, and it stayed that way our entire stay. The last thing, which is maybe to be expected due to being out in the wilderness, there were quite a few spiders, and bugs inside the home. A couple of us kept waking up with weird, random bites. At one point, I killed a black spider that was on my husband's pillow. Although I wanted to be in love with this property, and hated to say anything negative because of the kindness of the owner, whom was absolutely wonderful, I had to be honest with my review. I am one that books my trips based off the reviews, and I know the great disappointment you feel, when you get to a property, that you spent lots of money on, and it not be one that lives up to the pictures/reviews/or expectations.
