Summary: We were excited for our stay, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up toexpectations. Upon arrival, we had to reach out to the host to havethe driveway plowed. The couple he sent to plow it even told us whereto buy a shovel because, after searching, we couldn’t find one easily.We also had to reach out for the entry code, as no welcome email wassent—though the host did apologize for this.Inside, the house lacked essential supplies like toilet paper, papertowels, and trash bags. Some amenities were in poor condition—chippedplates, broken fridge drawers, and a fireplace missing stones. One ofthe beds even had a screw sticking out, which wasn’t exactly the cozytouch we were hoping for. The hot tub? Apparently, it required atwo-week notice, which was never mentioned before booking. We reached out one week prior and was told by the host that he would try to have it ready for us, however it was completely frozen when we got there. After settling in, we ran into more issues—the grill didn’t work, babygates were missing, and several small details were overlooked. When wereached out to the host after our stay, he visited the property anddismissed most of our concerns, claiming to have "found" missing itemsafter multiple adults had already searched thoroughly.This rental could be great with better upkeep and communication, butas it stands, it was more of an obstacle course than a relaxinggetaway. Hopefully, future guests have a smoother experience!

Summary: I would not book using this property manager as he was very hard to get ahold of. I had two phone numbers to get in touch with him after trying several times messaging through VRBO. The first phone number was disconnected and after leaving a voicemail on the second number and not hearing anything, I finally texted the number and was communicating with someone else who works for the property manager. She was the only one helping me for awhile until about a week prior to our stay. When we arrived the property was just as the pictures portrayed however we did not have any hot water at first and our tv was not working which was disappointing because we wanted to watch the football game and ended up having to go to the bar to do so. None of the sliding doors locked either. We were told a new tv would be delivered in the morning and then never heard from anyone again. The property was beautiful but it was so stressful booking with this property manager that I would never book here again.

Summary: We had a group of 16 men go up north on a golfing trip and couldn't have been happier with this location and set up.

Summary: Adam was extremely accommodating, place was clean and we had a great time relaxing with a spectacular view! Only thing we missed was not having a hot tub. Sauna was nice though. I’d highly recommend this place
