Overall, the property was fine for our purpose. We were disappointed in the quality of the bath towels – most of them in our bathrooms were threadbare and ragged on the edges. There was only one roll of toilet paper in each bathroom and no back up. And probably 1/4 of a roll of paper towel in the kitchen -no back up. There were no dish towels, I guess for the price that’s what you should expect, but it was very bare and minimalistic

I spent my birthday at Lago Vista. Amanda South is a generous host, and despite the issues that came up, she confronted them head on and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect.The house was beautiful, simple, and modern. It had many mirrors, which turned my 2 cats into 8 and gave me the feeling that I've become one of those crazy cat ladies with lots of cats. That was a fun experience.The neighboorhood was a quiet one, the lake was just a few blocks away--within walking distance. A guest pass to the lake is included with the house, allowing guests to visit the lake.Wildlife also lives peacefully among the community. In the fenceless backyard, my cats and I had fun watching a cottontail, a huge flock of geese on the horizon, many deer including a young buck and a newly born fawn, and don't forget the fireflies. So magical!Unfortunately, for the safety of the deer and other wildlife, the yard cannot be treated for chiggers, ticks, and other insects. The 20 chigger bites I got while there are bothersome, but they are my fault entirely. I should have brought along some "Grand Tongo Town and Jungle Protection" for myself (and family), and Vet's Best Mosquito repellent for my cats. Pro tip: Take a pet brush and spray it liberally with Vet's Best. Then brush your pet's fur. It'll keep mosquitos from landing and I'm sure it'll work on chiggers and ticks as well.Overall, this home was welcoming and delightful. Well worth the visit.

Outside was unkept. Inside was clean. Couch and beds were very uncomfortable. Bedding was very poor quality. Deer were the highlight.
