Not great communication. No response when asked if early check in was possible. "Hot tub" listed in amenities is actually a jet bathtub (standard tub size) Never have i been charged a cleaning fee and then have the owner expect us to sweep, mop, dust, change light bulbs if they burn out, take garbahe to curb, etc.

We were very pleased with the property, location, and experience. Large enough for our family with room to spare. We spent most of our time outside enjoying the large deck, fishing, kayaking, playing games in the yard, and using the fire pit.

Ww noticed some things that would make this place a bit more user friendly. In Bathrooms:Shower mats,grab bars, soap dispensers, hand held hairdryers.hooks for robes and PJ's Kitchen: could use a larger salad bowl and a serving platter(perhaps these were there but we didnt find them. Need new aluminum foil. Lightbulba are out in several bedrooms and one is flickering in the upstairs bath. Some switch plates are loosevand need tightening. We wpuld suggest removing the old Wi-Fi password in the guesr binder Taller nightstands next ti beds to .ake ug easier to read. New coffee maker instructions, the original ones were stuck together.

House was nice; communication with host was great until we arrived
The house was big with plenty of room for our family. Communication with the host was great up until we arrived. I tried reaching out about an issue with one of the beds, and had a couple other questions about things in the house, but the host never replied. It would have been nice just to get a message upon arrival of 'Hope everything is OK, let me know if you have questions or if there are any problems.' Good thing there were no major problems; we would have been screwed trying to communicate with the host.

House on the Canal
Nice place and great location. Only TV is on top floor up a long stairs. The 2 sofas on main floor were not comfortable at all. Nobody used them. Have stayed a lot of places and never seen a house rule book like that before. Checking out an hour earlier than other places is ok except doing the bedding is not a possible task with that timeline. Great parking area for boats and trailers.

Secluded getaway
I rented this property for a staff family retreat in June. There were 8 adults and 7 kids total. Pros: - Huge property. Plenty of space to spend time together or on your own. - Cabin feels. The decor and interior design were on point with the location (riverside). - Plenty of parking. We had 4 cars total (2 vans, 2 trucks). It would have easily fit another 2 cars. - TV wasn't the central feature of the main living room. This discouraged kids and adults alike to stay away from screens. - Close to dam and river access. - Close to swimming beach (we walked the 3/4 miles to and from with a baby and toddler in tow). - Keurig and coffee were included. - Kitchen is spacious and made for easy cooking. - Linens provided. - Home was mostly clean. - In-home washer and dryer. - Prior to the visit the hosts were fast to respond. Cons: - Septic tank must have been full or near full. It was pretty smelly outside and limited our time spent outdoors on the property. - Huge hair ball was found in one of the beds. - Guests are expected to strip linens and start their own housekeeping (sorting the dirty bedding and starting the laundry machines if able). - Fishing in the area was disappointing (4 walleye caught from the shore over 4 hours in the dam and river areas). - No fish for fishing right off the dock in the backyard. - Lots of seaweed in the docking area off the dock in the backyard. The kids did not want to play in the water back there at all. - No front door. This was just a bit confusing, as we walked around the entire house once to see if we had the right door and could disarm the alarm in time. - Uncomfortable mattresses in the bonus bunk room. They were lumpy. - Check-out time was unreasonably early considering they ask you to start washing the linens before you leave. - The phone number listed on the post must not be accurate. We were low on toilet paper. I texted the number and did not get a response at all from the hosts.

Not Quite What Was Expected
We booked this property 8 months in advance based upon it's location being near family who have homes on the lake. We arrived to find the home not clean. I travel monthly for work, and am very familiar with normal standards. The coffee pot had not been washed between rentals and had dried coffee in the bottom. Utensils in the drawers had dried food on them. The floors were dirty, and next to the garbage compactor the floor was filthy with food and dirt that had accumulated between it and the wall. The living room had not been dusted all summer. We did not turn on the ceiling fan because of the thick dust hanging from the blades. Vents were black with accumulated dirt. The garage is not as it appears on the listing photos. It was cluttered with bikes and chairs, and more, along with lint and dustballs all over the entry. We found that this was due to the dryer being vented into the garage. I did take pictures of all of this for reference. I believe the cleanliness issues are due to the home being turned over too quickly between guests, as mentioned in another review. As is standard in rentals, a cleaning fee is charged to guests. It was very disappointing to then find instructions in the home making guests responsible for most of the cleaning themselves. "Clean bathroom, dust, sweep, and vacuum. Clean the grill...wipe refrigerator clean. Strip sheets.....bedding. Sort bedding/towels by color and wash/dry as many loads as time allows." And do all of this and be out by 10am or you're charged a late fee. And yes, the sprinkler system is annoying going off while you're enjoying the yard. We had a wonderful five days together, the location was perfect for us, but we did expect better conditions for the price we paid. We plan to make this an annual tradition but would not return to this rental.

Great for family/group gatherings
We hosted a "college reunion" and this property provided the perfect space to catch up with friends and make new memories. The spacious kitchen/living area on the main floor and gameroom bar in the basement were great for enjoying meals and playing games. The secluded channel off of Pine Lake and the Holcombe Flowage is great for having access to fishing and watersports while still being quiet. Overall a great property and one we hope to come back to.
