The house is newly renovated and beautiful, with great, neutral, attractive design choices. The downstairs is lovely, with lots of seating, great views, a big deck (with almost too many chairs - it was crowded!). There was a nice selection of games - maybe add a jigsaw puzzle! Very nice towels - maybe a couple of extra dish towels would be nice. The kitchen had almost everything needed, except an ice cream scooper and a rubber spatula (and maybe another hot mitt and some trivets would be nice). We bought firewood and marshmallow sticks to use in the lovely fire pit. It was too cold for swimming but we appreciated that there were pool noodles. And there were a good variety of life jackets as well - maybe one more child one and one more extra large one would be ideal. The 2 single kayaks are great but if the owners add a tandem kayak it would be even better for our family of 4 next time - and we do hope to return to this lovely home!
The owner is so friendly and helpful and got back quickly over text when we had questions, including about the location of one of the kayaks and when we locked ourselves out! Her father-in-law lives next door and lent us a hose to hose down the kayak and also lent us his key when we were locked out. Really went above and beyond in that, and we're very grateful!
Very minor issues that didn't detract from a wonderful vacation: the downstairs bed moves/bounces a lot, the toilet runs a bit unless you jiggle the handle between flushes, and the walls on the second floor between rooms don't go all the way to the ceiling, which means noise and light travel between the rooms easily.
We really enjoyed our few days at this home, and we and the kids didn't want to leave when our vacation was over! We look forward to returning!
