Relaxing, Lakefront & Roomy Great for fishing, duck hunting, & family gatherings

A bit disappointed We've been using VRBO roughly 3 times a year for about 12 years and this is only the 2nd time I am unable to leave a glowing review for a property. If I had known in advance the state of things I either would have packed differently or chosen a different property completely.But, I'll start with the positives. 1. This property has a very spacious deck on the water with a GORGEOUS view.2. The owner is very kind and responsive and checked in on us often. Even bringing us a toaster when we realized the kitchen wasn't supplied with one.3. Plenty of towels, tp, soap and clean sheets on the bedsThe negatives for our family:1. The deck and external of the house were EXTREMELY dirty and bug ridden. The deck was covered in spiderwebs and tree debree. Old plaster ducks filled with old cigarette butts and yuck. Almost as if noone prepared the deck at all for company. It looked nothing like the photos in the listing which were clean and welcoming.2. Uncomfortable beds and broken recliners that didn't recline.3. Kitchen was gross. 2 cast iron skillets and a frying pan with god knows what foods all burnt into it and covered in mystery greasy substance. My mom and I couldnt make eggs for breakfast or anything that required a frying pan. The shelving under the microwave which was missing its handle was also broken and odd bowls and random kitchenware literally just shoved in there ready to tumble out when opened. Trying to figure out how to cook with what we had was very challenging.

Everything went well. The only issue was the mattresses. The bunk double bed mattresses need replacing bad.

There are definitely better places to stay/check out Blue Bank Resort This place has the most beautiful view! However, there is a very large amount of deferred maintenance and lack of basic amenities such as even a hair dryer that resulted in me needing to travel 30 minutes to get to the nearest larger town (twice) for basic things we needed and reasonably assumed would be provided. Owner than had the audacity to have us take their trash cans to the curb that was filled with trash from previous guests when they only live 1/2 mile down the road.

16th annulled fishing trip On the lake with a great view of sunset every night

Family Getaway We had a blast at this lake house even though the weather did not cooperate. We pulled up chairs to the sliding glass doors and watched the waves crash over the deck. It has an amazing view and we spotted several eagles just sitting in the den watching TV. The beds were comfortable and the owners were great. We had no issues to communicate with them over our 4-day stay.

Short and great stay Really enjoyed our time right on the lake. Easy check in. Stocked with what we needed and look forward to staying again on future trips.
