Nice property, but it seemed like the owners had just left everything out in the kitchen

Its a stunning house, with gorgeous proximity to the lake. Very clean and well kept. Our group love loved it. Will say that the house is much much closer to the neighboring houses than you imagine. And its a little bit smaller than you think. Bit still boasts a gorgeous living room with ceiling high windows facing the lake, and immediate dock access to the lake.

Pros
- Location: quiet and close to restaurants, marina and wineries.
- VERY clean.
- VeryCOMFORTABLE beds!
- Great floor plan, lots of space to spread out, big bathrooms for sharing etc...
- Big deck with lots of seating
- Plenty of parking
- Has beach towels for use, so nice.
- has lake access and swim dock (via a very steep and long staircase)
Cons:
- Ridiculously uncomfortable seating in the main living area! You can not lean back, no support etc… yes its big, but not at all conducive to relaxing, think of it like a footstool. Watching TV was horrible, pile up pillows behind you etc.
- 3 chairs with the dining table, Really need 6-8 so everyone can eat together etc!!
-PLASTIC chairs that are flimsy and feel like a childs play set. When you lean back they creak and crack, so afraid we were going to break one!! (I am guessing one broke that's why only 3)
- Master bedroom, no window coverings on the sliding door. Window coverings on windows are very light (Room faces East…so 6 am wake up on vacation!) They are pretty but not functional for sleeping in on vacation.
-NO bedside table lamps in the master bedroom, must have room lights on to read etc…
-Master shower door doesn't close so water leaks out and on floor.
-Skillets are in need of replacement, teflon is all peeling and they are dented etc…
- The plug in scents are over done and overpowering.
- The stairs to the swim dock are VERY STEEP!! the bottom railing is missing (pictures don't show how long and steep it is)
**I would not suggest having small children use it at all!!

Clean House but needs updates and improvements. Badly needed a dining set for the group to eat together. Master bed room needs blinds or covering for glass door and glass wall part .
Expected lot more. Quite few more suggestions if the owner contact.

Due to Covid, we are still taking family stay-cations in our area and this home was perfect! The check-in process was super easy and the home felt very welcoming upon arrival. The St Patrick’s Day decor was a cute surprise (we went in March during Spring Break). The kids loved the trampoline and their own rooms. We spent the majority of our time enjoying the huge back deck. The upstairs loft with a pool table was also a favorite! The owner’s attention to the little things like labeling the cabinets in the kitchen was much appreciated! There was even a little gift for us when we arrived. My only request would be to label the TV remotes. We couldn’t find remotes for a few of the TVs but not a big deal! Overall, I highly recommend this home and we are looking forward to coming back!

Beautiful house!
We had 10 people staying at this house for a bachelorette get together over the weekend and it was perfect! Everyone slept comfortably (we were comfortable sharing beds), and they even left a cute little candle as a welcome gift. The backyard is beautiful. We didn't get in the water but there were neighbors that were. We cooked using the stove tops and the charcoal grill. We loved this house!

Beautiful views!
We enjoyed staying here so much! Plenty of space and very comfortable! We enjoyed being so close to the Marina and having the swim platform to swim in the lake! Definitely a great stay!
4.3
Amazing!
We had one of a lifetime experience ever!
The place was well kept and spotless
Made us felt like at home!
Well preserved and private
And best of all no annoying neighbors, very respectful and friendly community.
One of the best views from the comfort of your bed or the deck (if your a morning person)
Would RECOMMEND to ANYONE ! ! (Yes im hollering)
Will be back next year
Side note: bigger tvs for the rooms would be nice

Perfect weekend getaway
What a wonderful weekend we had relaxing and enjoying this beautiful home. We were in dire need of a retreat for our family after being cooped up for the last couple months and this fit the bill perfectly. Beautiful view from the deck that sits just down from the marina in a cove. We are already making plans to return this fall or next spring.

MotoGP weekend
Place is nice, very comfortable, scenery was awesome, garage in pic is not available which was a disappointment, and needs more privacy for master bedroom, but other than that great stay, all guest were impressed and loved it ( on a different note contact and guest service was the worse ) couldn’t get anyone on a weekend to help out

Would stay again
Good location, nice house, comfortable, too many tchotchke's around the house though.

House looks great, but has a lot of issues with electrical.

Great Place for a group getaway.
I brought a small group of 8 people to this home for a weekend retreat. The group loved the home and had a great time eating meals on the outside deck, taking a dip in the water nearby, and relaxing indoors.
4.3
Wonderful!
We had an amazing weekend getaway here with a bunch of my girl friends. The place was in a really beautiful spot and had a super eclectic ambiance which we all ended up loving. The only thing is we discovered there was no dock or pier on the water, like it shows in the pictures, so we were unable to spend any time in the water like we had planned. Hence, the three stars since that was one of the main reasons we chose the house. Otherwise though, it was a great stay!
Manager's Response:
Celeste, thank you for your review. We're so glad to hear you enjoyed the home's beautiful location and ambiance for your weekend getaway. We apologize that you weren't informed of the boat dock - the owners are currently in the process of replacing the boat dock with a swim/ boat tie dock and the listing has been updated to reflect that. Thanks for letting us know about your experience, and we hope to assist you in booking this vacation home again in the future! Best, the Evolve Team

The property was in am amazing area. The house was in great shape very neat and clean. Would highly recommend for a getaway.

Comfortable, clean, well-equipped, great location, quiet
It is as it appears in the ad. We would return.
4.3
Great location and house! We'll rent it again.
This house is nestled in a quite cove close to the marina. The beds are great and the kitchen is equipped with all your needs. Our only complaint was the coffee maker because it didn't use Kerig pods we couldn't use it. Otherwise it's a perfect house for 6 people. We will rent it again!

Very outdated home and just not a comfortable setting to enjoy a weekend away.
Very cluttered home and just not a comfortable setting to enjoy a weekend on the Lake. The pictures shared on the VRBO are very misleading. I would not stay at this property again nor recommend.
