The house was perfect for our family of 6. Plenty of room in the 3 bedrooms, small but efficient kitchen and small and cozy living room area. We were a little disappointed that some items that have been a given in other rentals were missing: no hangers for our clothes, no iron or board, no hair dryer. The last 3 rentals we have been in have had complimentary coffee, but we did not have that here. My sister in law was in a home by the event venue and had a Keurig with pods. It's a nice touch.

Booked this home last minute for Thanksgiving. The host was very easy to work with for check in and out and answered any questions I had very quickly. The house was very clean and well maintained with modern farmhouse decor. All bedrooms were decent sized. You can easily walk down to the lake.
