Great weekend stay
The place was as described and very clean. It was a little confusing knowing which was our place and knowing exactly what we had access to such as lawn furniture and fire pit. Overall, it was a great place and a great stay!

Surpassed Expectations
We were so very pleased with the property. The house itself is beautiful, very clean, and well appointed. It was very spacious with a gorgeous view right down the lake with a spectacular view of the sunset each night. We had guests below us but would never have known if we had not met outside. We will be requesting this property again!!

As advertised and pretty
I had booked this property in Jan 2025. We had unexpected sickness with family and couldn't travel and the Property Manager worked with us to reschedule. Then when it was time to go again we got 10 inches of snow and couldn't go, once again the Property Management worked with us!! Amazing and easy PM. The stay was very nice as well. Location is pretty. We enjoyed our stay.

Great house in a beautiful setting
This place was great! My friends and I had an event in Marion over the weekend and this place was the perfect for our group. We had fun with the kayaks and paddleboards in the afternoons and sat on the pier in the evenings. The house was very comfortable and clean inside.

Family Gathering
We rented this for a weekend getaway and had a great time. The location is nice with a good view of the lake. The house was clean and comfortable with the basics provided (kitchen items, bathroom towels, etc) The unit is the top floor with permanent residents in the basement unit. This wasn’t an issue for us, but something to consider.

Worth it!
Everything was amazing from communication with property managers to views. We did need to hang up a sheet in the master bedroom since there were a few of the blinds missing and the neighbors could just peer in. The grill has seen some better years. Other then those minor things the experience was great.

Vacation
Place was nice and clean. The cover on the attic fan kept falling and the ladder on dock was broken, but did not stop from having a good time. I did not know that the lower level of house was also rented out. The kids loved the kayaks and paddleboards.

Beautiful scenery
We were a party of 10 (4 adults and 6 children). The kids loved the view of the lake and enjoyed fishing! Having our morning coffee overlooking the lake and enjoying the sunset was amazing from the deck!! A memory we will never forget..
For the price we paid I feel it was a decent place to stay.
The only down fall is there is an old couple who live downstairs with a couple of dogs. (Apt B) When the kids would go outside the dogs wouldn’t stop barking. Also, the old couple would bang something on their ceiling and we would hear it on the floor. I feel he was felling as if we were waking around to much and heard walking.. I was very mindful telling the kids to please walk softly so the couple below us would stop acting the way they were.
If I would have known this rental was on the second floor I would not have rented it.
But over all I feel it was a nice place to be during the Christmas holiday.

Nice area, house was ok.
House is spacious, cute decor. You can tell it gets a basic cleaning but nothing more. Blinds in living room are outdated and heavy, be careful when lowering them. Blinds on patio doors in kitchen and master bed had slats falling off and missing. Kitchen was clean, some basic cooking items. Area for coffee and some k-cups in the drawer. Table and chairs on balcony had leftover food and a plastic fork left behind. Grill was dirty so we scrubbed before using. String lights on balcony did not work, neither did back door light. Main living room fan does not work. No bedding for either sofa bed. Found a dusty comforter in the garage so we decided to stay up and wash it. Washer was not hooked up! Hooked it up and then washed blanket. Very old washer/dryer. Next morning we realized fitted sheet underneath us on master bed was coming off. It was wrong size and had just been thrown on, did not fit bed. Shower in master bath had broken door handle dangling. Not enough bath towels. Smoke detector was fine, carbon monoxide alarm was missing battery flap so we could clearly see there were only two batteries and an empty space where third should have been. Had a great trip to Southern Illinois, but would not rent this home again. There should have been plenty of towels, bedding, and things should have been in working order.

Clean, nice, bright and specious place.
