Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This property perfectly met our needs! We were able to bring in our suitcases and begin enjoying the house and lake. We appreciated the access to the kayaks and yard games. As a family of 3, we had more than enough room. All contact with the host was kind and friendly!
