Could be amazing
Get to the front door, cobwebs and something that ran down the door and dried on it. Walk in carpet is disgusting. Since you allow pets, remove carpets. Carpet under dining room table has duct tape around, which was all messed up. The fridge and freezer has not been cleaned in years. Pots, pans and cooking utensils are horrid. Dirty towel in upstairs bathroom. For the price we paid and the cleaning fee, we expect the house to be clean and have proper cooking utensils. So disappointed.

Not for Summer
The cabin home is nice, and spacious. However, it is full of “belongings”. There was even food left in the refrigerator, and the pantry cupboards full of “stuff”. It was also record breaking hot temperatures. I tried to reach the “contact” people to ask questions prior to our arrival, I couldn’t reach anyone until the day before our stay. No Air Conditioning…We had to search all over for fans. Found 2 extremely dirty box fans and 2 ceiling fans, one only worked on low. The worst part of our trip, they had taken the docks out! (Found this out 1day before our arrival, so couldn’t cancel) The whole reason we rented this cabin so far away was because it stated lake front, lake access with dock and sandy beach. The kids could not even swim! All weeds, muck and leeches! We had to leave this expensive property and drive to a beach. That was the most disappointing wrong thing to remove the dock prior to our stay. There were other slightly bothersome things too as stated in other reviews in regards to floor dust, & cleanliness. I had to clean off thick, old cobwebs and dirt from the deck table and chairs prior to using, and the deck stairway was boarded up also. We even had to clean out the gazebo in order to use it.Disappointing 🙁 stay just not worth the money charged. I would say it would be a nice winter ice fishing getaway. Not a summer place…

Great experience
We stayed in this home for an extended family weekend away. The property and home were beautiful and provided plenty of space for us to be together. The hosts were flexible and kind. I’d gladly stay here again.

Beautiful lake property.
Private location with access to a lake. Main house offered lots of space, many bedrooms and several baths. Large deck. Well stocked kitchen. Could have been a little cleaner and there was some maintenance it's that should have been done. Still, lovely property that met our expectations.

Have had better!
I sent a message requesting check-in information when we were about 3½ hours away. I still haven't received that info. Luckily, my borther in law was able to get the key box open so we could get it in. There was an incredible amount of dirt on the floor, as if it hadn't been swept in between guests. The walkways into the property from all entrances are made of dirt so some dirt is expected, however, the need to sweep was immediate upon our arrival, despite a carpeted foyer area. The place was muggy and musty smelling especially in one of the downstairs bedrooms (it was equipped with a dehumidifier). What appeared to be mold was visible along the baseline of the downstairs hallway. We have mold allergies and all 8 of us had allergy spikes after the first night. There were piles of animal hair visible in the corner behind the chair when we were sitting on the floor playing with our baby. Trash from other guests found under the beds when checked for any of our belongings as we were packing up. The deck has several broken boards exposing potentially dangerous nails. We call these "toe catchers" where I'm from. The deck is very slippery when wet. The coffee pot was dirty inside where the filter goes and inside the carafe. Also, be sure to switch it off as there is no auto turn off feature. The dock space was nice to hang out on. You can get in the water from the shoreline but it's full of plants, algae and lake scum. I am not new to lake life so I understand how the shores are often unpleasant to play in and my expectation was that the water would be accessible to splash around in based on the listing description. There is carpet underneath the dining table that is rolled up in the edges creating trip hazards for all. The lighting in the kitchen is poor since most of the under counter lights did not work. Be sure to bring your own toiletries. None were provided. I was grateful that plenty of toilet paper and linens were provided. The hand soap in one bathroom was watered down despite there being a giant refill bottle under the sink. The kitchen iknives are dangerous with the wooden handles being broke around the trivets holding the handle together. We travel frequently and stay in a variety of vacation rental homes and are also hosts of vacation properties in beach and woodsy areas. This was sub par in comparison to others I've stayed in and to our standards as a host. I can say with confidence that we left the place better than we found.

Disappointed in the cleaning. Cob webs. Garbage in between cushions moldy sheets in Dryer.
The cabin is older but has a great interior. Plenty of room for the 8 of us. However we will not be back because of the cleanliness.
