Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Barb S. 22 Jun 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Mixed review The property needs some maintenance...over grown brush, soffit is seperated from the cabin. Pics show a pontoon boat & a row boat. Pontoon is extremely old and full of wasp nest as is the row boat. Fishing was not very good either. We had a very peaceful stay, but I'm not sure if we will return. Overgrown brush will eventually prevent a view of the pond from the cabin. The chairs at the fire pit were old & we were affraid to sit in them. This property could be fantastc with some maintenance. There volunteer trees growing into the driveway by the cabin preventing a vehicle from parking close, also. There were 3 dogs at the property. One visited us everyday. He was a cute little dog. The other two are not so cute. They came after me when i was taking trash out. I thought one was going to bite me. They came by the cabin everyday to bark and growl at us. ##### Barb S.
