Very good communication w/ host --the boathouse was a unique & fun option. We enjoyed it & would stay again! parking is a little far especially w luggage. ants/insects were a concern that the host is working on.

Overall, it was clean. Door knobs, pretty dirty and doors. It was hard to heat with one little bitty space heater. Can’t run heater and lots or coffee maker at the same time. We had to hang a blanket just to stay warm in the bedroom.
