Great Stay!

My family/friends had a great time at this property! We played pool on the pool table in the basement and had a great time spending time together! The property was very clean and comfortable! Ryan was quick to respond to messages I sent which was greatly appreciated! We didn’t catch any fish in the lake but we captured great photos of the deer that frequented the front yard and the neighbors yards!! We would definitely consider returning to this property! Thanks Ryan!

First time at SML

Pros: Loved the lake and surroundings. Neighborhood was great, full of deer! House is nice with almost everything you need. Enjoyed the pool table. Nice dock. Cons: 52 stairs to dock (beware if bad knees). Upstairs deck is splintering. Upstairs master bed is extremely squeaky.

Awesome little house

The house was very clean and well maintained. It is a lot bigger inside than we expected. Linens were clean and fresh smelling. The dock is great with plenty of room and the cove is very quiet, great for just floating around. Ryan is great, very responsive and answers any and all questions in a timely manner. My son left his necklace and owners called immediately and said they would mail it next day.

It was a wonderful place to stay. The owners were great! We would rent it again. There were only a few things to improve. The dishwasher didn’t get the dishes clean so we washed by hand, but that was ok. The downstairs washer has be run on drain and spin after it washed the clothes because the clothes were still really wet. There was nothing to clean with, so we bought a broom to sweep the place before we left. We’d rate it 4 and a half stars, because it was a great place to stay, and we’d rent it again.

Very small and dated. Not well kept.

I had been expecting so much more based on the earlier reviews and was incredibly disappointed. Contrary what others said, the house was verry small. I highly suggest examining the photos closely. Plus the property was not in good shape - one of the toilets was broken, old food was in the refrigerator, the lower floor smelled moldy and the property was very dated (especially the bathrooms). Also large portion of the dock is taken up by the owner’s 2 jet skis and owner's boat dock. Further communicating with the owner was very unpleasant. As an example, when we arrived, we noticed that one of the toilets was broken. Instead of fixing the toilet in advance, the owner had us coordinate with a plumber (the last thing you want to deal with on your vacation) to fix the toilet. Plus the plumber did not show when the owner said he would, and instead, just walked into the house without any notice. No mask. No care about covid. Not a good vacation experience. Overall, the lake was beautiful, but I would chose a different place to stay next time.
