Beautiful house…over all it was enjoyable. A couple of notes - The lake was down quite a bit. The hot tub was damaged, and the stairs down to the water were fairly sketchy… the pontoon boat took a good bit of parking area. Lighting to the door could be SIGNIFICANTLY improved, and the steps leading to the deck/door (only way into the house) were very treacherous and slippery - some steps even rotted away entirely

Overall the house is nice, we could not use the hot tub as it was dirty and when we turned it on, it was filled with a lot of foam and chlorine smell was unbearable. The key box is difficult to open. Taking out trash required us to drive 30 minutes one way!!! Otherwise they threatened to charge us for each trash bag. There are over 100 steep stairs to the lake, keep it in mind.
