"The condo itself was great. It was roomy and clean. Unfortunately some of the neighboring properties were cluttered and appeared to be run down. We spent most of our time on the back patio, very well kept. Near enough to town for us to get to and from town easily."

8/10 Good
"This house worked excellently for our family. We have never stayed at a house that was so adequately supplied. Plenty of garbage bags, paper towels, tp, etc. The kids loved the pool table and ping pong table, and the secret room. Rooms were clean. And, we were able to get our bay liner boat all the way up to the house.I would give it a 5 star, but the fridge in the garage wasn't working properly, and the lights in the little room just off the main entry didn't work. (And it wasn't the light bulbs as we purchased some, but that didn't help.) And, the carpets on the stairs and upstairs need a good cleaning.Having said that, we would stay at the house, again, some time."

"The cabin was very clean and I appreciated we had access to the garage and pantry for storage. We appreciated the deck and outdoor table for 8 people. The kids also enjoyed the game room. The upstairs bedrooms with the bunk beds were pretty small and the beds felt hard, but overall it was a nice place for a family get toghether."
