Overall this is a great house for a large family holiday on the lake. There were just a few minor issues, which can be corrected very easily. They had put an extra portable A/c in the master bedroom, which was not necessary. What is did cause was wasp being able to get into the room because the ducting was not secured properly. We resolved the issue ourselves and bought wasp spray. I would suggest also having available wasp spray for around the porches and pool area. Also, in the master bathroom adjustments need to be made on both shower handles to raise the temperature from just warm to hot. The automatic ring spot light over the garage is constantly going on at night, which lights up the bedroom. the ring sensor is way to sensitive and should be fixed or taken down. We fixed the problem with aluminum foil and painters tape. Everything else about the house is great and the management company were very responsive to any of our request or questions. This is our 2nd year staying here and will be staying again next summer.

This is a great home for large families. We had a total of 14 that included 4 grandchildren ages 1-8. Everyone really liked the house, especially the pool, dock area, and game room. This house has a perfect location with Publix/DQ 10 minutes away! The house is just off the main lake which is great for being able to swim, float, and paddled board. Deb and the entire management team were very helpful with all questions and giving suggestions. Definitely a house we would visit again!

Great house and location

This is a great house for multiple families. The pool is great. We had three families, and we all had plenty of space. The property manager was easy to work with and very responsive when we had questions about anything. Only note on accuracy of the listing is that the listing says it has three king beds, but there are only two king beds. Overall, we would definitely book this property again.

What a dream this home really was.

Even though it was a chilly couple days at the lake the view from the screened in porch made it so enjoyable. There were so many things to offer throughout the home we didn’t want to leave from the game room to the separate areas of the house we almost forgot that we had brought children with us. The management company was very responsive and accommodating. Can’t wait to book again for the summer to enjoy the pool and private dock. Booking today to not miss out.

When we first arrived there was a blue tarp on roof. We did not know what to think until the next day when the ceiling and water dripped onto my husband. my husband had plaster and brown water hit him on his face and arm. There were brown stain on floor from across the room, the couch had brown circle marks.We called immediately when the master on the main floor had no air-condition. They came and brought a window unit and fan. It dill cool room at night however, when you took a shower the entire room became a sauna . I called again and they sent another repair man who told us this had been a problem. That is when I remember someone else complaining about the ac. I wish I never booked!!!!!The only response from the management company was how sorry and when I said the roof was leaking her response was "it was minor and was apparent last week. We intentionally chose not to preform roof work during our stay because we did not want to disrupt your vacation with contractors working overhead". I could no longer respond at this point.

We take one family vacation every year. When we saw this rental we thought this is going to be an amazing house. Nope! The view was great but the house itself needs some work. I only have 1500 characters to write this so I will get to the point. Broken items one of the a/c units and that was in one of the king rooms ,microwave, outdoor shower, tv that would not connect to anything, all fans and fan lights that turned on and off whenever they felt like it, outdoor fan did not work, one stove burner did not work properly. Drain in one master shower overflowed all over the floor my son-n-law ended up cleaning the drain it was full! Kitchen had one large bowl and no oven mitts and only four coffee mugs for a house that sleeps 12. I never got instructions that you have to text to have your hot tub and fire pit turned on and off. We spent the first evening looking in the book and searching the property for a switch. The outside of the house was in need of a good power washing a lot of the windows were covered with dirt. I called and had left a message and was called back the next morning. The rental company was responsive to these issues but not all resolved. I was told I would get a refund for the issues and have yet to hear from anyone. Beautiful view boat rental company was amazing but you might want to choose a different house definitely was not worth the price. I could’ve taken the whole family on an eight day cruise for that price. Wish I could say more but I am out of

The house was very nice and spacious for our family of 9. We enjoyed the game room of playing pool and shuffleboard. It was very nice having 2 refrigerators and a nice laundry room. The pool was very nice and we really enjoyed the spa! We called the property manager to take care of a drainage issue with one of the bathrooms and it was taken care of immediately. The cleaning crew did not do a very good job of cleaning. It looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a long time, tables were not wiped off, they were dusty, floors needed sweeping, the screened in porch floor and table were dirty so we never used that area. We reported active roaches to the property manager and we were told the house had been sprayed the previous week. The controls to the fans/lights throughout the house did not work properly and they were reported to the manager but were not fixed. We also reported a water leak from the beams in the living room to the property manager. It had a beautiful view of the lake and the neighborhood was quiet.
