All in all we had a great time with out of town friends. The main road was very quiet with so little traffic. Quiet and peaceful place. We had one issue of a smoke alarm chirping from low battery. Notified the host and within the hour someone came and replaced the battery. We enjoyed the house very much! We had 20 people over for dinner. Enough tables and chairs. Thanks to all that made this a great gathering for our girl’s first birthday.

My family enjoyed our stay. Great amenities, with an awesome layout! Kids loved the room with bunk beds and the kitchen was awesome.

Really enjoyed everything

Three generations stayed here with 5 kids under 5 and we all had a blast! Even great grandma who lives local came by to visit and enjoyed her stay. We hung by the beach, took out the kayaks with ease, even my 3 year old. The property owners helped us coordinate a boat rental with the capt. That picked us up right at the dock after breakfast. We enjoyed s'mores by the fire and the whole family hung out on the outdoor living room watching an evening passing thunderstorm. Super close to the airport and very close to grocery shopping restaurants and outlets. We hope to come back again!

Overall, this property was great for four couples and seven children. With the use of the bunk room, each family had their own space/bedroom and only one shared bathroom so it was great. The kitchen was the best kitchen we have had in regard to space. There was a great supply of children's dishes, silverware and cups also. Plenty of plates/silverware etc. We cooked all meals in for the week for 15 people and it was necessary to bring/purchase large serving bowls, crock pot, larger serving spoons, and a larger skillet. The cookware and serving pieces would be fine for smaller groups or groups that did not prepare large meals. There were two tables that could accommodate all of us to sit together inside or out. We loved that. The outside areas, the kayaks, the float rafts were used constantly along with the sandy beach. The lake is typical lake water with a mushy and interesting feeling "floor". It took a bit for the kids to get used to that type of water but it was still great for kayaking or floating. The US Whitewater Center was a great day trip for all children over 8 years old. Most hiking and activities are a drive so we were thankful the kids liked the beach and kayaking etc. McDowell Nature Preserve was great for every age. Great activities and definitely worth the trip if you are looking for a hiking type of activity. The property managers and maintenance person were very responsive to any concerns that we had. Quick replies and solutions.

The week began as a work retreat for my staff. The home is very well appointed for a small group of adults, lending lots of common space to come together for discussions yet separate rooms for privacy. When work was over my family joined us. There are plenty of activities for all to enjoy. The lake, fire pit, swings, outdoor sitting, games, puzzles, pool, and so on. The kitchen was well appointed. Lots of open areas. Bathrooms were nice, beds were comfortable, and seating plenty. They even had a s’more kit awaiting us upon arrival. Lights switches were labeled for assistance. Fire pit had the starter fire ready for us. Within 2 miles of the home is a grocery store, pharmacy and many restaurants. You wouldn’t know that though because it was so quietly nestled in along the lake. Would love to return in warmer weather to enjoy the lake. The lake front is amazing. While it is in a cove, it is deep water so there is an embankment that contains the water therefore there isn’t a worry that the cove may be low with no water access. There were steps from the lake into a nice sandy area where kids could play. The dock had an upstairs with picnic table and lounge chair. The owners really did think of everything. The one thing I liked that ranked up high was the check out instructions literally said, leave the bed as if you rolled out of it. Drop the towels on the bathroom floor, take out trash and roll on. All rentals charge cleaning fees and most rentals make you do all the work. Love!

The house is beautiful and the beds and linens are very soft! The location is great and is easy to get to. It had plenty of space for our kids 3 and under and was child friendly. The kids love the beach area and dock. We fished a little while enjoying the fire! We hope to be back!
