In some ways, it was perfect. The lake setting was beautiful. There were enough beds for everyone and room to spread out. We had time to just chill and hang out with the family with no distractions. All our families were able to drive the same distance to meet up and spend time together. Mission accomplished.
One the other hand, considering we fixed all our meals on site, the kitchen facilities were substandard. This bothered the cooks and our chef son. Next time (if we choose to come back) we will bring our own knives! Dealing with no garbage disposal was a forgotten skill that quickly returned. All families were used to having curbside recycling. (yes, we did improvise to recycle our glass, cans, empty water bottles, cardboard, paper, taking it home.)
The final or first issue we discovered was leaking. There was water dripping from the trim around a bedroom closet. The puddle on the floor was huge taking two big towels to wipe up. We called the property owner, was assured someone would be out Saturday morning then crickets. (understandable as it was a holiday weekend but a call back to say no one was coming would have been nice.) The dripping was intermittent. Also one of the master sinks dripped under the cabinet. Since some one was supposed to come out Saturday we didn't report it until the day after check out. We called our vacation spot the party house since it's obvious no one stays in it long enough to notice and fix the little things.
