Location, house and spa pool were very good. Only major downside was there wasn’t an operative lighter for gas stove, so how were we meant to cook? There also was no reasonably sized bowl to heat food in the microwave. Otherwise our stay was most enjoyable.

Nicely renovated and clean house with great views

Everything went smoothly and house was very clean when we arrived. Kitchen was well equipped. The outdoor area was great with views of lake and mountains. BBQ was a challenge as it never got up to temperature, in the end we seared the steaks in the kitchen, be mindful of that if you plan to BBQ. The HRV system was very loud in the master bedroom, we turned it off to get to sleep. 8 of us had a great reunion there.
