The property was very pretty and the amenities were very nice!!
I did not like that we had to pay for service call for AC not cooling - that should be the responsibility of the owners to make sure all is working correctly.
This would have perfect for me and my extended family but not sure I want to risk being charged for multiple service charges.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Listing accuracy
Great location, major issues, great communication
We were a large group for a family reunion who rented all four houses. Courtland was a great communicator from the time of the reservation all the way through our departure. House 10 smelled like damp, musty mold. That’s could be heard in the walls and were seen peeking out from the fireplace area. In this home no bats escaped into the home however, a bat did fly out of the space between the wall and chimney into the home in house 12. The air conditioner did not work in this home and 2 others initially, but Courtland was responsive and it was fixed within two days. He also reimbursed us for one day of our stay due to that inconvenience. Overall, the entire property is amazing. The pool was clean and the Pool house allowed grandparents to stay downstairs at the pool area for a longer period of time but out of the heat. The sandy beach was a favorite along with the kayaks. All four houses need a thorough deep clean. All need some sort of entryway mat by both doors leading outside, particularly the downstairs door where people are entering from the beach and the pool. If the moldy musty smell can be addressed along with removal of bats, the house would be a wonderful place to stay.
Such a beautiful home, love the location and peaceful atmosphere, even in the winter time the lake is still beautiful! Kids enjoy the play set and the view and walks we took. Great home for a family! We will be back!
Perfect family rental. We have stayed here many times and will continue to come back. Great location- great home!

Fabulous lake house!
This home was perfect for our family and friends! Plenty of room and had everything we needed. Quiet and great views of the lake. Highly recommend and would love to
stay here again!
Such an amazing time!! The pool, kayaks, and beach area was perfect for the kids!! The house was spacious and gave us plenty of room! We definitely loved the location and will definitely be back!
Perfect place for our family with several small children. The beach area with paddle boats was awesome for ages 7-13. The pool depth of 3 feet and 5, also perfect for children to play safely in the pool. Party barge, easy in and out, was a great high light. The house was roomy and comfortable; the views from the house were simply beautiful. We will likely return.

Great property!!
House was great. Large living area and great porches overlooking the lake. Highly recommend!!
Bolton Cove was all that we hoped in accommodations for our extended family stay. We rented two adjacent homes at Bolton Cove and they were each equally
Our family has been coming here for the past four years. It has always been an enjoyable experience. Courtland and the staff do a great job making the guest experience top notch.
Would definitely recommend. We had a terrific stay. This Is a very attractive, well furnished home with plenty of space. The location is great and the outdoor amenities (kayaks, beach, etc) were fun for kids and adults.
My 3 siblings and I rented all the houses in Bolton Cove. This was a perfect place for a family reunion. There was something for everyone...pool, kayaks, boat. The house had everything we needed. I would highly recommend!
Perfect for a large group ranging from age 70 to age 2. Rented all three houses for a group of 30. Had tons of fun in pool, at playground, swimming and kayaking in the cove.
