Reconnect with Family
Our large family of 8 adults and 6 children truly enjoyed our wonderful family reunion at the lake. We love the new path to the lake because it is perfect for our elderly grand parents and our young children. There is seating for all of us to eat at one time too enjoy telling stories. The lake house and the lake front property are exactly as described and we recommend this property for family reunions. Two of our children caught their first fish right off the dock here and they are still talking about it. We loved it here and we plan on coming back next year.

Perfect for our Family!
The cabin was perfect for our family trip to reconnect together in the mountains. The cabin was clean and had everything that we need just as we read on the listing. We especially enjoyed our walks around the lake. The owner was responsive and he answered all of our questions immediately and was very thoughtful. Our children loved sleeping in the cozy bunk bed. We recommend the cabin to our friends and family. We will be back again soon!

Disappointing to say the least
This property lacks basic comfort and security. The majority of the windows don’t function, one wasn’t attached. The door handles are broken, the furniture, save one couch was ripped, broken and outside moldy and threadbare. The dishes and pots were dirty was was the BBQ. There was garbage, glass and cigarette butts strewn around the yard. The canoes were broken and unsafe, with broken paddles floating inside. The bathroom was dirty, the shower curtain in tatters and the face cloths and towels were falling apart. While the location is beautiful however everything else was truly disappointing. There were warnings posted on tape and scribbled notes about broken the dishwasher, that beeped constantly and to not fill the garbage can as there is only 1 cleaner. We were absolutely embarrassed to welcome our family to the property while in town for our daughters wedding. This is by far the worst experience of renting we’ve had over dozens of trips in last twenty years.

Gateway in sunny, warm Cranbrook
Great location, Definitely great for a family gathering - Rustic, charming lake cabin, nice bedrooms/bathrooms setup but VRBO description/listing is a bit outdated Not all amenities are still available Living room furnitures needs upgrade, upkeep on the infrastructure have been neglected but considering that the place is up for sale, the owner for this rental property may not want to put any money in

Filthy House. Feel Scammed
Jerry is unfortunately the worst host I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. His House was very DIRTY. The sheets in all 5 bedroom were filthy with hair/crumbs/dirt. We had to clean all counter /table surfaces and floor before we unpacked. The host/owner lives out of country and was not communicating with us in any helpful way. He threatened me to not leave a review and then he would refund us 50%. The refund never happened. It’s a shame. the lake is pretty. I feel scammed. And the filthy property inside and out ruined our weekend

Family getaway
This was our second summer at the lake house. The location of the property is ideal. Being right on the lake is perfect for kids. The property could use a little tlc, but for the price and location it’s a great value. Would come back again.

Roomy cabin with privacy and nice access to the water
We had a family gathering and 12 of us slept comfortably! The cabin is rustic and spacious with a nice deck and a path to a private dock! We really enjoyed our time!

Don't stay here!
Worst VRBO experience yet. Day of arrival the septic flooded the basement with noticeable stains and an awful stench. House is for sale and a relator showed the property after we checked in and while we were there! The refrigerator and dishwasher were inoperable. The beds and furniture seemed to be out of a free second-hand store: super uncomfortable, squeaky, magazines stabilizing the table, recliners stained and broken. We requested alternate accommodations from VRBO and after being disconnected with them 3 times, they never called us back after agreeing to give us different accommodations. Worst part of our weekend.

Place not what was presented
This property was not as presented in the online photos. Obviously, the photos were taken long ago and were not current. Inside was very much like the photos presented online. The outside was run down, the deck and stairs need repair, and the grass was cut weeds. The path to the lake was overgrown. The yard had a broken canoe and a bit of junk laying around the backyard. The alarm for the septic tank went off the second day and the lower level flooded in the middle of the night. Although the flooding was cleaned up and repaired, the stay was not as enjoyable as was wanted. Even wiping up the floor from a spill indicated the floors haven't been mopped or cleaned in a while. Some dishes were chipped. Overall, this place is misrepresented by the photos. I wouldn't recommend staying here. The owner has yet to return emails or contact when trying to reach them.
