  Great experience lovely home nice view of the water from the sun room. The only thing I would say that needs fixing is the dock it is semi not safe to get on and the stairs getting out of the water have a lot algae on it which makes it hard to get out. With that being said I very much enjoyed the house.

  When reviewing the listing, I had questions. I reached out to Evolve and the rep told me they didn't know information on the house. I asked for contact info for the property. They gave me the guy listed in several reviews as no longer being connected to the property. I explained that per the reviews, that was bad info. They STILL gave me his contact. Getting the right contact was far more difficult than need be. Now about the house... the layout is odd. Based on the order of the photos we thought the "en-suite" bathroom was connected to one of the rooms with a king sized bed. Not the case. There are 2 rooms with kings upstairs - neither have a bathroom connected. One of them had a TV that didn't have a working remote so we had to reprogram the remote from one room to another in order to use it. There is 1 bathroom in the hall up stairs. Downstairs there is a room, with the squeakiest queen sized bed, that has a true en-suite bathroom. That room has no fan. It was insanely quiet and every time someone upstairs walked/moved/did anything touching the floor - it woke us up. On top of the already squeaky bed, we got little sleep. Kids bunk room was set up awesome! Only downfall there was that the Roku didn't work, but no biggie since there were other TVs. 3rd bathroom is across the hall from the bunkroom downstairs. Kids loved playing in there!There was no outside fridge in the garage for drinks, etc. That picture needs to be updated. The dock... we called because we couldn't get the lights to work. Super responsive and came the next day. The photo that shows the fish cleaning area should make mention that it doesn't work at all. The pipes leading to the sink aren't even connected. We did have some great times catching fish though! The retaining wall is pulled pretty far off so definitely not safe for little children. The owners are waiting on the permit to redo it. Kitchen had everything we needed aside from storage for leftovers. Dollar General is right down the street, so we got what we needed there. Sunroom was AWESOME! There was plenty of space for our 3 families. The owner was quick to respond back when asking things. Only other odd thing, the entire middle of the yard holds water. Not sure if it is a leaking pipe, the drain pipe from the neighbor's pipe or the septic. It was gross though so don't plan to use that area. The house was incredibly clean. Maybe one of the cleanest houses we have ever used on VRBO.

  4/5

  The house was nicely upgraded inside, very easy to access, plenty of places to sleep and TVsIn each bedroom. Some of the remotes did not work, bring batteries. House was overall clean inside. The boat dock needed maintenance along with the upstairs porch. Fans did not work on porches. Slow coffee maker inside and not a lot of spices in cabinet. Two kayaks, ready and easy to use. One adult and one youth life jacket only. Bring your own. Overall very fun stay!

  We scheduled an overnight retreat at the property and the house was wonderful. Great facility, amenities, and location.

  Let’s start with the great things! Such a beautiful view, I wish it wasn’t winter bc the water looked very inviting. Loved the back porch, very comfortable beds, nice balcony and lots of games provided. The pictures online showed that the grill is Propane but it is in fact charcoal. So make sure to bring some! The lake house is right by a busy road. The house was very clean except for inside a few of the cabinets, and 1 stained throw pillow. Overall we had a great time!
