What a great vacay. The property location was perfect! The slough is set back off the main water just enough so that we could enjoy the water next to the dock without any big waves. Can’t beat the view. Loved the boat house upper deck area several of us took naps up there. Bonfire area next to house was a great evening activity roasting marshmallows. We rented a pontoon boat from Harbor Pointe Marina, which is literally just around the slough from us. We brought our own jet ski and paddle board, and also used the house kayaks.
Bring boat shoes for the walk to/from house. Plus you need them on the dock. We overpacked! Seriously, you only need swimsuits, coverups, and pjs. That’s it.
Kitchen is fully furnished with everything you need. We grilled, baked, and microwaved.
Bedrooms are a bit small, but you have to remember it’s a lake house you’re not in your room except to sleep. So it was fine. The downstairs built in bunk bed room was extremely spacious and the bathroom down there has a tub. One note, this room is only accessible by going outside. If you have teenagers it’s great. We used the washer/dryer several times and they worked perfectly. House is stocked with beach towels for the masses.
WiFi worked great and was reachable even at the boat house area. Tv out there worked out perfectly, we set it to a country music station and relaxed on the floating dock.
Only negatives: yard service came while we were all there trying to swim and relax- he was very loud and quite a bit of cut grass got in the water. But we understood he was on a set schedule, just impacted us for about an hour. Also, the walk to and from house is dirt and mulch - maybe getting pavers would be nice in the future. But again, it’s a lake house, we wore out boat shoes and it was fine. However, If you have serious ankle or knee issues that walk would be challenging.
Overall, an amazing time. Would defiantly rent this house again.
