We enjoyed this home. Everything was high quality and they provided plenty of back up necessities. The welcome box was a nice touch. Communication was very quick and the check in and out was smooth. I would highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again.

The only downfall to this place is that there's no walk way up to the house which makes it hard to get up the hill with slick grass and roots hidden in the grass. Also the water pressure was less than desirable. However the area is beautiful and the house is immaculate. The bed was very cozy. The front of the house is all windows and faces the lake which meant you always have a great view. Eating on the deck overlooking the lake was the highlight of our evenings. We are already planning another visit!

The bungalow was beautiful. Very clean and had everything we needed for the kitchen and bath. We did have a hard time figuring out how the heating system worked and it would have been nice to have instructions for the heating unit, dishwasher and stove. Had to figure out how to use them. But it was a very nice place to stay.

Very clean, great location. We enjoyed the small dock, as well as the large deck. My only negatives are these... 1. There were very few cooking utensils. If you plan to do any significant cooking, bring your own. 2. The mattress is memory foam. My wife loves it, I don't. 3. They definitely need to put up some strong hooks. There is no closet space. None. But the only hooks they have were stick-on hooks, and all within inches of each other in the bathroom. 4. The Keurig didn't work 5. If you have any mobility issues, you should know that you can only reach the house by walking uphill across a lawn. Suitcases, etc. cannot be rolled. They must ne carried. All that being said, we would definitely book it again. The neighbors were friendly, and the community is quiet. There is a wonderful restaurant/bakery/coffee shop about 10 minutes away in Draper, the Draper Mercantile and Trading Co. There are also many outdoor opportunities available nearby.

The bungalow was exactly as advertised, checkin and out process was simple, no issues at all. Fire pit was a nice touch. We even saw a couple of deer.

While the location was nice and peaceful my safety was threatened and the owner could have cared less. They rented out their property next door to a group that had a pitbull that attacked both me and my dog. I tried to work with the owner but they forced me to leave days early due to my safety concerns and would not offer a refund or any compensation. I would never trust them again.

The house was cozy and well appointed. They made the most of the space. Location was beautiful but recommend the front railings of the deck be changed to allow full view of the lake. We enjoyed our stay. The property management was very responsive.
