Pros: beautiful lake view, nice interior aesthetics, great sand beach for the kids, good swimming for the little ones, great paddle boat and canoe, good deck. Nice living room and kitchen space.
Cons: We are average size people and were not able to walk around the bed in the main bedroom without hitting the wall and the bed at the same time. The bathroom is tiny, and the shower is tinier (and no tub, as indicated). We have a 3 year old, so holding her in the shower with one of us was near impossible, and it was very necessary after lake swimming. We left a night early so we could get clean! There were less amenities then places we've stayed for the same price. The posting says that shampoo and soaps are provided, but there was no shampoo, and only a half a bottle of hand soap (not enough for a family for 4 days!) provided for us. Other places we've stayed have left some sanitizing wipes and coffee. It was decently clean, however, could have been more. I know it is a beach house, but the chairs and kitchen benches could have been wiped down more (perhaps a wipeable material could be used), as you could see the dirt and stains at this point in the summer. The patio door had lots of fingerprints on it. I am high maintenance, but I am sure others are as well, so I wanted to note all this. I also messaged the owner several times before our stay requesting that decorative pillows and throws be removed before our stay for cleanliness sake, but the request was ignored.
As noted in description: no freezer, no dishwasher, no stovetop. This probably would have been more okay had we not been in COVID times and wanting to avoid restaurants. Do make sure the fridge is turned to an appropriate degree when you arrive. We didn't know it had been turned down all the way before our stay and had to throw out a small fridge full of food the next day because it was all warm.
