Gorgeous setting on Claytor Lake, looking across the cove at the state park. There is a "No Wake" zone in front of the house, so boat traffic going past was quiet. The home is sparsely but adequately equipped and all appliances worked well. Would have loved to have a 10 or 12-inch usable skillet in the kitchen, but there was an 8-inch. Things that were great: multiple decks; use of washer/dryer; full-size fridge; very clean; light and bright. Things we would change: need bedside tables on BOTH sides of beds with lamps so you don't have to get out of bed to turn off overhead light; bedroom doors need to be planed/fixed so they don't stick and wake everyone; towels are unabsorbent microfiber (bring your own!). The printed directions to the house were just wrong at the end (use GPS instead), there are no street signs, and we spent far too long maneuvering around the neighborhood trying to find the house. There are steep hills involved, so would not go in winter. Fishing was bad for everyone we talked to, so perhaps a seasonal issue. Walmart Supercenter just 10 minutes away if you forget something!

Had a nice weekend and enjoyed the great views from this wonderful lakehouse.

This is a great little lake house with a wonderful deck, an amazing view and plenty of activities just minutes away. The property was very clean, had everything we needed for a getaway with the kids, and would be especially nice in the summer months as the lake is gorgeous.
