Communication was a little slow to confirm any needs for the property, but that was most likely due to the influx of renters with hurricane helene. Was glad to have a place to take a needed respite from no water, no power, no internet. Place was clean and lovely and well stocked. There are in fact 2 fridges, with one in the downstairs. :D ##### Owen C.

The house had plenty of room, was located on a quiet cove where kids could swim, paddle board, fish and lounge. Great decks for gathering. We loved it! ##### Ned H. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sylvia C. 28 Oct 2025 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication The lake view and property itself was beautiful. No issues with our stay just a few housekeeping items that are noteworthy. We had to make up our own beds when we arrived which I felt was unacceptable (about 13 beds). The owners left clean bedding and towels on each bed. There were a lot of cobb webs and some crawling bugs upon our arrival- It felt like no one had stayed there in a while and the house should have been sprayed in advance. The owners did respond about that when I messaged them. Other times that I reached out, I didn’t get a timely response or no response. Pots and pans were almost unusable. The house is beautiful but the layout is not ideal. The only common bathroom was in the basement and it didn’t include a shower. So on all levels, you had to go in someone’s bedroom to use the bathroom or shower. All in all, we had a great stay. I just feel like there should have be a little more cleaning of the property prior to guest arrival. I just wanted to make a note for the owners in ways to improve for their future guests. ##### Sylvia C. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael v. 7 Oct 2025 ##### Michael v.
