Peace and Quiet
Lovely home overlooking beautiful view of the inlet and lake. Two porches to enjoy -- one is screened. Very clean and didn't smell like dog! Super quiet and remote neighborhood.

Great house ! Just way too many steps to lake!
We all had fun ! We rented a boat and played on the lake. The lake was so beautiful and not busy. The house was great! But no hair dryer and gum on the bed down stairs on the post? Just too many steps to get to the dock?

Family lake trip
The Dawg Pound was great! Very clean and comfortable, the steps to the second level of the house was a little steep, a little hard to access if you have any knee or hip problems. Other than that, it was great!

Great time
House was perfect and had everything we needed for a great time. The commercial grade ice maker was a blessing for filling our cooler to accommodate all day boating. Dock was great and boat launch right there by house. Road is a bit narrow and curvy with trailer to get to house, just go slow. Fire pit a great touch, might want to bring extra camp chairs. Would stay again.

1 week at the Dawg Pound.
The house is a very nice 3 bedroom. The owners have made it very welcoming and it is setup nice. Very nice dock about 45 steps from the lower covered porch. Plenty of parking space and a nice fire area in the woods across the street.

Wrong address
First of all the house was great. The problem was the physical address was incorrect. It was trails end..not trains end, so our Google maps took us 2 hours out of our way. Second thing was it wasnt a good location to swim for dogs(which I paid extra for) hill was way to steep to exit or enter for our 4 legged friends. So a big negative. Hope these things can be resolved for future guests.

The Dawg Pound
The Dawg Pound is VERY nice. However, the neighborhood is under a lot of construction and it made the stay a bit challenging. But, we understand the upgrades to neighboring homes need to happen now in order to be ready for the summer.
