Not what we expected
We rented this property for the beach area pictured. It looked nothing like that picture. The beach was dirty with little sand and there was a pontoon docked in the middle the entire weekend. The property owner, from the beginning of the rental process, was also terrible with communication. The smell of sewage and the ridiculous amount of wasps made sitting out on the porch for more than 20 minutes impossible. The wasp also made their way into the house and you could hear the buzzing in the walls. I wish I could say that grounds around the house was nice but it wasn’t. The entire trip was just uncomfortable. The beds were ok though.

Lovely owners but disappointed with outside area
Communication was great, showers were amazing, beds were comfy. First impressions were let down by the amount of heavy machinery left around 2 sides of the property that impacted the view, and the muddy sand that was between the house and beach/deck. We were unable to easily access the new deck by the lake as new landscaping had made it extremely muddy. We did not sit outside much at all as the view was limited. The owners did mention the mud but not the heavy machinery. They were very accommodating with us arriving 3 days earlier than originally planned and with bringing in supplies of stuff that was missing from the house.
