Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Adam H. 4 Dec 2024 Liked: Communication Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Booking issues Overall, it was good to have a roof over our heads for the night. No complaints there. The original location in Eskridge ended up being booked for the evening, resulting in a late check in time. I received communication a day before our stay providing another location to stay at. The lakehouse was decent, providing all accommodations necessary. One hide-a-bed, a full size and a twin bed, the latter being quite uncomfortable. A slightly dirty toilet is my only complaint about the cleanliness. ##### Adam H.
