Good location, nice lake
The property is on Wheeler Lake, which is a great lake for fishing and watersports. There's a sandy public beach nearby that you can visit for $5 per person, and the boat launch is fairly close. Lakewood is five minutes away.
The cottage is older, but has been nicely remodeled with two newer bathrooms, a modern kitchen and numerous other updates. There's a nice deck with a table and six chairs overlooking the lake, so we spent most of our time outside. The dining table only sat four, but it is open to the living room.
There are two bedrooms, one with two twin beds and one with a queen bed, and a full bath on the main level. There's a full bath and a bedroom with a twin and queen bed in the basement.
The dock is short, but there is room to tie a boat. There's a small firepit area near the water. There are lots of water toys to use, as well as two kayaks.
Pros: location, lake
Cons: limited space, we felt a bit crowded with six adults
Tips: bring extra paper products and bring lawn chairs if you want to sit by the dock or firepit. Lakewood is just down the road if you forget anything.
This was my first experience with a Vrbo rental, so I wasn't sure what to expect. Overall it met our needs.
