We spent two evenings there mid-week, and it was a wonderful place to unwind. The house is immaculate, though the downstairs had a faint oder of air freshener or perhaps having just been cleaned the room smelled of cleaner. Also, there is a note to not turn off the AC on the first floor, and it was COLD down there. Beyond that, the house is wonderful! We spent most of the time in the house on the second floor, which has a wonderful, cozy feeling to it. There are a lot of notes around, reminding the renter of things, and one was a note not to move the furniture, sitting on the coffee table. The funny thing is that the coffee table is so far away from the seats that it's useless unless it's moved a little closer. Also, the TV faces nothing. In other words, it's difficult not to slightly move the furniture to take advantage of the comfort of the place. We did not move the furniture. We found the notes here and there a bit much. We totally understand no renter would want the furniture rearranged. On the subject of "notes", the helpful hints book is really mostly another going over of the rules. However, I do want to say that the reminders to make sure the doors are locked when you leave did help me to remember. The notes may be important but it was amusing how many there are!
Besides the great feeling of the second floor, the third floor with the beautiful layout of the bedroom, and the big windows, was fun. It felt like we were in a high end resort! The property is fun too, with all sorts of stairways, big deck out back, little sitting areas, gardens. Delightful.
The best part of the whole experience, and one that sets this home apart is the boat house, as well as the very nice patio and dock. We sat on the dock most of the day, enjoying the sun, the water, the activity on the water. The water itself was great. We had wine and cheese on the upper deck of the boat house in the evening as the sun was setting. Awesome.
We did order from the local pizza place one night as well. They delivered ahead of schedule, were very nice, and the food was great.
We would definitely return to this place. Thank you.
