The home was quaint and the neighbors were mostly quiet. The location where you could see the lake from the back yard was nice, but there is no way to get to the lake from the actual yard. It’s a steep drop.
This area is not secluded, and there were neighbors on both sides. One was doing yard work that woke us up the first day.
This is an old home that has been renovated, but it has a nice feel to it. The premium price as compared to other places is likely the hot tub, though.
The communication was mostly pleasant. I fixed an issue where the garbage disposal had a bunch of bottle caps inside and let the owner know about that and a couple other minor things that were not an inconvenience before I left. I also asked if I could water the plants since it wasn’t raining, and took care of that. However, the last message was received the day after checkout, where the owner asked if we “maybe packed some of her towels,” which is going to come off to anyone as an accusation of theft. We did our best to leave the place better than we found it despite a $150 cleaning fee, and that was the last thing I was left with.
