Not clean
We were disappointed in this property. Kitchen floor wasn’t clean and we had to clean a few pans before use. Clothes in drawers of prior persons stay. The outside had cob webs, bugs and had not been wiped down in a very long time. When we initially walked in, there was a strong smell. We took about an hour to collectively wipe down or clean inside and outside tables and chairs. We also had to but had soap for bathrooms.

House was ok. There was a outside canopy that is in the listing that has been removed and not there any further. We were bummed out about that especially since it was still in the listing.

Labor Day Weekend 2024
To Whom It May Concern, the patio furniture in the front was not clean, The Front Porch should have been swept and inviting, as well as the kitchen felt sticky and needed to be mopped. My Son, Daughter and I took paper towels and wiped the outside table as well as swept the wooden balcony. Downstairs had little worms all over floor but my wife swept them up. it's disheartening to pay for a location and have too clean and dis-infect it before we can relax and rest. it has a beautiful scenery, but the cleaning was unacceptable. also investing in cushions for the outside Metal chairs and beach chairs will go along way. It appears this property is being neglected. my opinion. Sincerely Ilester Little PS- The Bathrooms and Toilets were clean.

Family getaway
The property owners/host were very easy to get in contact with and responded quickly when we arrived and noticed the AC wasn't working properly. The house was very close to the water and had great steps down into the water for swimming. We were sad the dock was famaged by storms, but were kindly given access to the dock next door. Our only complaints involve the cleanliness of the property. One of the grills was super dirty and the kitchen fridge was dirty. The yard/ grounds needed attention...dead plants in all pots and a canoe full of water was in the yard. House just needs some TLC but overall we had a great time.

Has potential
We found out the property recently sold to new owners. Communication regarding the state of the house prior to us staying would have been nice, but I understand they are trying to honor prior booked rentals. This home has a ton of potential. I'll be honest, the links in VRBO and ABNB are very deceiving. It is incredibly run down. It provided us with a place to stay, but it was definitely not at all worth what we paid, nor properly portrayed in the listing and reviews. My husband and our kids spent 3 hours cleaning the outdoor areas so that they were usable and cleaning windows so that we could actually see outside. There were several safety issues as well. Smoke detectors do not work. There were open electrical outlets with no covers and exposed wires. There were multiple exposed wires in the backyard. The downstairs toilets would start to overflow if you were showering. Once it is updated and renovated, it will be a great rental. The neighbors were very nice! We are pretty relaxed renters and have never given a poor review, but felt an honest and up to date review was needed until updates were made by the new owners. We were appreciative of a place to stay for our sons tournament.

Overall a good place to stay. Evolve, who I guess manages the property, never responded to any of my questions. Water level was so low we could not tie my boat and jet ski to the dock. Had to wade through water to get on the boat. Plenty of room for everyone.

Awesome Rental!
This house is amazing! Peaceful and quiet neighborhood. The view is breathtaking. Plenty of room to relax and unwind. The kitchen was fully stocked with dishes. The property owner was very responsive and made sure that we had all of the information to check in. We definitely will be renting this property again!

Old folks review. The good and the bad
The property listing shows 2 king beds and 1queen, plus a lot of bunk beds. The view was great, the place was super clean and lots of seating places in the living room. I contacted the property manager ahead of time and was told the arrangements of the king beds, one upstairs and one downstairs. The 4 of the us are all in our 70’s so stairs are normally not our friends. So I knew this before we got there and both couples prefer the king beds. So I offered to take the downstairs bed thinking it was one level. Problem was once I got downstairs which had a handrail that lead to a utility room where the washer and dryer were located. To get to the bathroom, across the utility room, there were 4 steps going up with no handrail that you needed to take to get to the toilet. From the bathroom back through the utility room and then down about 4 more steps down without a handrail to get to the game room area. To get to the king bed/bedroom which was on the same level as the game room but the furthest room from the restroom. So a really long way to get to the restroom if you had to go during the night or anytime. Therefore we decided to stay in the queen room. This probably would not be a problem for a younger group of tenants. We are just too old.

What we needed but nothing to rave about
Our group was a women's retreat and this was a nice drive from FW. Overall, our stay was good. Pros: Initial communication about the property, clean bathrooms, over all nice outdoor space, lots of fridge space, nice lake view, comfortables beds and couches. Cons: VERY SLOW communication during our stay, wrong code to get in the house, weird changes in water temp when showering, grungy sofa beds, and dirty/water damaged in downstairs areas on baseboards.

Amazing weekend
Great property. Stayed for a few days with about 8 guys. Went out fishing 2 days and caught about 70 catfish between all of us. Down time was great with the fire pit, ping pong table, and space for everyone to spread out. The twin pull out couches are a great idea for large groups. Would definitely stay out there again! Neighbor next door was a bit creepy. I can understand it could be a little daunting to see a big group of guys unloading next door, but the lady was like leaning over her porch to try and look into the windows at us. I feel they would/should know that the house next door gets rented for Vrbo. She chilled out and wasn’t an issue throughout the stay. Outside of that, weekend was perfect!

Nice for family
Overall we enjoyed our time. There are great common spaces to play games and hang out. The ping pong table and fire pit were highlights. It took us a long time to get into the house because the instructions were not correct. Then there were a few minor inconveniences such as no dish washer pods, no working coffee maker, etc. but nothing that ruined our stay.
