Lauren's Lake House
Lauren's lake house is a beautiful property and very spacious. The home itself was outdated, could use some upgrading. We loved the outdoors the most but couldn't fully enjoy at night due to the bears in the area. There were a few bears roaming the property at night. The kitchen was fully equipped with the essentials needed which was a plus. My main concern with this home was the smell, wasn't too sure if the septic or water was having issues but throughout the home it reaped of rotten eggs. The cleaning also wasn't the best, there was hair left in the shower drains maybe from previous guest. The parking was more than enough for my family and I. For the amount paid I kind of expected a little more from the home, but we enjoyed and made the best of our Christmas.

Amazing Filming Location!
Our team of 8 people set up in this amazing house to film videos for kids (in our church) featuring actors in a rainforest. Lauren was so incredible to host us and accommodate our needs. The house was perfect with a large living and kitchen space. The bedrooms were also a good size. We loved the big back porch and the outdoor patio. The walkway to the river was beautiful and from the dock, we could sit and enjoy various wildlife (lots of woodpeckers and an alligator)! Highly recommend this property!
